I was wondering if it could be done by moving a bunch of these
functions in the processor_perflib.c, but there is a lot of code
that would have to be moved. Way too much.

Perhaps another, and a nicer way would be to:

1). Create a processor_driver_lib.c which would have the "generic" code
2). In the processor_driver just keep the essential notifications, and
the hotplug code
3). The introduce the other user of the acpi_processor_[add|remove|notify]
calls as a seperate library?

Thoughts?
