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.

The cpu_die field in smp_operations is not valid with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU,
so we must enclose it in #ifdef, but at least that lets us remove
two other lines.

Rename virt_smp_ops to psci_smp_ops and move them to arch/arm/kernel/psci_smp.c.
Remove mach-virt/platsmp.c, now unused.
Compile psci_smp if CONFIG_ARM_PSCI and CONFIG_SMP.
Add a cpu_die smp_op based on psci_ops.cpu_off.
Initialize PSCI before setting smp_ops in setup_arch.
If PSCI is available on the platform, prefer psci_smp_ops over the
platform smp_ops.
