ARM: 8726/1: B15: Add CPU hotplug awareness
The Broadcom Brahma-B15 readahead cache needs to be disabled, respectively re-enable during a CPU hotplug. In case we were not to do, CPU hotplug would occasionally fail with random crashes when a given CPU exits the coherency domain while the RAC is still enabled, as it would get stale data from the RAC. In order to avoid adding any specific B15 readahead-cache awareness to arch/arm/mach-bcm/hotplug-brcmstb.c we use a CPU hotplug state machine which allows us to catch CPU hotplug events and disable/flush enable the RAC accordingly.
