s390/smp: reallocate IPL CPU lowcore
The lowcore for IPL CPU is special. It is allocated early in the boot process using memblock and never freed since. The reason is pcpu_alloc_lowcore() and pcpu_free_lowcore() routines use page allocator which is not available when the IPL CPU is getting initialized. Similar problem is already addressed for stacks - once the virtual memory is available the early boot stacks get re- allocated. Doing the same for lowcore will allow freeing the IPL CPU lowcore and make no difference between the boot and secondary CPUs.
