In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, Use device_online() and device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down().
Calling cpu_up/down directly does not update the cpu device offline field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling device_online/offline instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling device_online/offline, is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store. This patch fixes errors on PowerVM systems that have cpu(s) added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the online state of added/removed cpus.
