x86/mtrr: Prevent CPU hotplug lock recursion

Larry reported a CPU hotplug lock recursion in the MTRR code.

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected

systemd-udevd/153 is trying to acquire lock:
 (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){.+.+.+}, at: [<c030fc26>] stop_machine+0x16/0x30
 
 but task is already holding lock:
  (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){.+.+.+}, at: [<c0234353>] mtrr_add_page+0x83/0x470

....

 cpus_read_lock+0x48/0x90
 stop_machine+0x16/0x30
 mtrr_add_page+0x18b/0x470
 mtrr_add+0x3e/0x70

mtrr_add_page() holds the hotplug rwsem already and calls stop_machine()
which acquires it again.

Call stop_machine_cpuslocked() instead.
