Subject: [PATCH v7 2/3] cpu-hotplug: export cpu_hotplug_enable/cpu_hotplug_disable

Hyper-V module needs to disable cpu hotplug (offlining) as there is no
support from hypervisor side to reassign already opened event channels
to a different CPU. Currently it is been done by altering
smp_ops.cpu_disable but it is hackish.
