x86: Fix list/memory corruption on CPU hotplug

currently if AP wake up is failed, master CPU marks AP as not
present in do_boot_cpu() by calling set_cpu_present(cpu, false).
That leads to following list corruption on the next physical CPU
hotplug:

...
Which is caused by the fact that generic_processor_info() allocates
logical CPU id by calling:

 cpu = cpumask_next_zero(-1, cpu_present_mask);

which returns id of previously failed to wake up CPU, since its
bit is cleared by do_boot_cpu() and as result register_cpu()
tries to register another CPU with the same id as already
present but failed to be onlined CPU.

Taking in account that AP will not do anything if master CPU
failed to wake it up, there is no reason to mark that AP as not
present and break next cpu hotplug attempts. As a side effect of
not marking AP as not present, user would be allowed to online
it again later.

Also fix memory corruption in acpi_unmap_lsapic()

if during CPU hotplug master CPU failed to wake up AP
it set percpu x86_cpu_to_apicid to BAD_APICID=0xFFFF for AP.

However following attempt to unplug that CPU will lead to
out of bound write access to __apicid_to_node[] which is
32768 items long on x86_64 kernel.

So with above fix of cpu_present_mask make sure that a present
CPU has a valid APIC ID by not setting x86_cpu_to_apicid
to BAD_APICID in do_boot_cpu() on failure and allow
acpi_processor_remove()->acpi_unmap_lsapic() cleanly remove CPU.
