powerpc/smp: soft-replugged CPUs must go back to start_secondary
Various thing are torn down when a CPU is hot-unplugged. That CPU is expected to go back to start_secondary when re-plugged to re initialize everything, such as clock sources, maps, ... Some implementations just return from cpu_die() callback in the idle loop when the CPU is "re-plugged". This is not enough. We fix it using a little asm trampoline which resets the stack and calls back into start_secondary as if we were all fresh from boot. The trampoline already existed on ppc64, but we add it for ppc32 Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
