powerpc/pseries/cpuidle: Replace pseries_notify_cpuidle_add call with notifier
The following patch is to remove the pseries_notify_add_cpu() call and replace it by a hot plug notifier. This would prevent cpuidle resources being released and allocated each time cpu comes online on pseries. The earlier design was causing a lockdep problem in start_secondary as reported on this thread -https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/2 This applies on 3.4-rc7 Signed-off-by: Deepthi Dharwar <deepthi@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
