Subject: [PATCH v5 02/22] cc_platform: Add new attribute to prevent ACPI CPU hotplug

Platforms with confidential computing technology may not support ACPI
CPU hotplug when such technology is enabled by the BIOS.  Examples
include Intel platforms which support Intel Trust Domain Extensions
(TDX).

If the kernel ever receives ACPI CPU hotplug event, it is likely a BIOS
bug.  For ACPI CPU hot-add, the kernel should speak out this is a BIOS
bug and reject the new CPU.  For hot-removal, for simplicity just assume
the kernel cannot continue to work normally, and BUG().

Add a new attribute CC_ATTR_ACPI_CPU_HOTPLUG_DISABLED to indicate the
platform doesn't support ACPI CPU hotplug, so that kernel can handle
ACPI CPU hotplug events for such platform.  The existing attribute
CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED is for software CPU hotplug thus doesn't fit.

In acpi_processor_{add|remove}(), add early check against this attribute
and handle accordingly if it is set.

Also take this chance to rename existing CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED to
CC_ATTR_CPU_HOTPLUG_DISABLED as it is for software CPU hotplug.
