The incorrect ordering of operations during cpu dlpar causes the affinity
of cpus being added to be invalid. Phyp does not assign affinity information
for a cpu until the rtas set-indicator calls are made to set the isolation
and allocation state. In the current code we call rtas configure-connector
before making the set-indicator calls which results in invalid data in the
ibm,associativity property for the cpu we're adding.

This patch corrects the order of operations to make the set-indicator
calls (done in acquire_drc) before calling configure-connector.
