Subject: [PATCH 01/14] Introduce cpu_enabled_map and friends

Currently, the following cpu maps exist:

	cpu_possible_map - map of populatable CPUs
	cpu_present_map  - map of populated CPUs
	cpu_online_map   - map of schedulable CPUs

These maps do not provide the concept of populated, but disabled CPUs.

That is, a system may contain CPU modules that are physically plugged
in, but disabled by system firmware. The existence of this class of
CPUs breaks the following assumption in smp_init():

        for_each_present_cpu(cpu) {

		.../...

                if (!cpu_online(cpu))
                        cpu_up(cpu);
        }

The assumption is that the kernel should attempt cpu_up() on every
physically populated CPU, which may not be desirable for present but
disabled CPUs.

By providing cpu_enabled_map, we can keep the above [simplifying]
assumption in smp_init(), and push the knowledge of disabled CPUs
and the decision to bring them up, down into arch specific code.
