Allow the boot_secondary SMP op to return an error to __cpu_up(), which
will in turn return it to its caller.
This will allow SMP implementations to return errors quickly in cases
they they know have failed, rather than relying upon __cpu_up()
eventually timing out waiting for the cpu_running completion.

smp_ops providers do not modify their ops structures, so they should be
made const for robustness. Since currently the MIPS kernel is not mapped
with memory protection, this does not in itself provide any security
benefit, but it still makes sense to make this change.
There are also slight code size efficincies from the structure being
made read-only, saving 128 bytes of kernel text on a
pistachio_defconfig.

Nothing was using the method and there isn't any need for this hook. This
leaves smp_cpus_done() empty for the moment.

commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files. MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

We're weaning the core code off handing cpumask's around on-stack.
This introduces arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask(), and by defining
it, the old arch_send_call_function_ipi is defined by the core code.
We also take the chance to wean the implementations off the
obsolescent for_each_cpu_mask(): making send_ipi_mask take the pointer
seemed the most natural way to ensure all implementations used
for_each_cpu.

Each platform has to add support for CPU hotplugging itself by providing
suitable definitions for the cpu_disable and cpu_die of the smp_ops
methods and setting SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU. A platform should only set
SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU once all it's smp_ops definitions have the
necessary changes. This patch contains the changes to the dummy smp_ops
definition for uni-processor systems.

The following symbols in arch/mips/kernel/smp-up.c are needlessly
defined global:
up_send_ipi_single()
up_init_secondary()
up_smp_finish()
up_cpus_done()
up_boot_secondary()
up_smp_setup()
up_prepare_cpus()
This patch makes the symbols static.
Build-tested using malta_defconfig.

In particular as-is it's not suited for multicore and mutiprocessors
systems where there is on guarantee that the counter are synchronized
or running from the same clock at all. This broke Sibyte and probably
others since the "[MIPS] Handle R4000/R4400 mfc0 from count register."
