Subject: [PATCH 1/9] ARM: EXYNOS: remove secondary startup initialization
 from smp_prepare_cpus

From: Pankaj Dubey <pankaj.dubey@...sung.com>

We are taking care of setting secondary cpu boot address in
exynos_boot_secondary just before sending ipi to secondary CPUs,
so we can safely remove this setting from smp_prepare_cpus.
