Subject: [PATCH 15/22] arm64/cpuinfo: Make hotplug notifier symmetric

From: Anna-Maria Gleixner <anna-maria@...utronix.de>

There is no requirement to keep the sysfs files around until the CPU is
completely dead. Remove them during the DOWN_PREPARE notification. This is
a preparatory patch for converting to the hotplug state machine.
