[POWERPC] Split xics_teardown_cpu()

Browse Source 
This splits off the kexec path bits of the xics_teardown_cpu() routine
into its own xics_kexec_teardown_cpu() routine.  With the previous
combined routine the CPPR for a cpu that is being removed may have its
CPPR reset in the plpar_eoi() call (which explicitly sets the CPPR to
a non-zero value).  Splitting of the kexec bits of the code prevents
this from happening in the cpu remove path.

Once again, this does not cause the cpu remove from the kernel to
fail, but it does cause cpu dlpar operations to not be able to return
the cpu to the hypervisor.
