[PATCH v2] smpboot: Add CPU hotplug state variables instead of reusing CPU states

[Daniel Wagner]

The cpu hotplug state machine in smpboot.c is reusing the states from
cpu.h. That is confusing when it comes to the CPU_DEAD_FROZEN usage.
Paul explained to me that he was in need of an additional state
for destinguishing between a CPU error states. For this he just
picked CPU_DEAD_FROZEN.

8038dad7e888581266c76df15d70ca457a3c5910 smpboot: Add common code for notification from dying CPU
2a442c9c6453d3d043dfd89f2e03a1deff8a6f06 x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code

Instead of reusing the states, let's add new definition inside
the smpboot.c file with explenation what those states
mean. Thanks Paul for providing them.

Hi,

This patch is against current mainline. If you want it rebased
something else, just let me know.

cheers,
daniel
