Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Remove no longer needed work_on_cpu() call

Since commit 1cf4f629d9d2 ("cpu/hotplug: Move online calls to
hotplugged cpu") it is ensured that callbacks of CPU_ONLINE and
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE are processed on the hotplugged CPU. Due to this
work_on_cpu() calls are no longer required.

Replace work_on_cpu() with a direct call of mips_cdmm_bus_up() or
mips_cdmm_bus_down(). Description of those functions are adapted.
