smp: patches from mainline 3.5 to hopefully help with hotplug
efficiency

Thomas Gleixner's generic-idle patches:

smp: Add task_struct argument to __cpu_up()
Preparatory patch to make the idle thread allocation for secondary
cpus generic.

smp: Add generic smpboot facility
Start a new file, which will hold SMP and CPU hotplug related generic
infrastructure.

smp: Provide generic idle thread allocation
All SMP architectures have magic to fork the idle task and to store it
for reusage when cpu hotplug is enabled. Provide a generic
infrastructure for it.
Create/reinit the idle thread for the cpu which is brought up in the
generic code and hand the thread pointer to the architecture code via
__cpu_up().
Note, that fork_idle() is called via a workqueue, because this
guarantees that the idle thread does not get a reference to a user
space VM. This can happen when the boot process did not bring up all
possible cpus and a later cpu_up() is initiated via the sysfs
interface. In that case fork_idle() would be called in the context of
the user space task and take a reference on the user space VM.
