Paul Gortmaker 8bd26e3a7e arm: delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from all ARM users
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the ARM uses of the __cpuinit macros from C code,
and all __CPUINIT from assembly code.  It also had two ".previous"
section statements that were paired off against __CPUINIT
(aka .section ".cpuinit.text") that also get removed here.

Nicolas Pitre 6c93dd438a ARM: 7741/1: mcpm_platsmp.c: remove empty smp_init_cpus method
The smp_init_cpus method in the smp_operations structure is optional
and can be omitted entirely.

Nicolas Pitre 9e01573b5c ARM: 7715/1: MCPM: adapt to GIC changes after upstream merge
Since commit c0114709ed ("irqchip: gic: Perform the gic_secondary_init()
call via CPU notifier") it is no longer required nor possible to call
gic_secondary_init() from platform code.

Nicolas Pitre a7eb7c6f9a ARM: mcpm: provide an interface to set the SMP ops at run time
This is cleaner than exporting the mcpm_smp_ops structure.

Nicolas Pitre 9ff221bad8 ARM: mcpm: generic SMP secondary bringup and hotplug support
Now that the cluster power API is in place, we can use it for SMP secondary
bringup and CPU hotplug in a generic fashion.
