To test for the existence of an RTAS function, we typically do:

   foo_token = rtas_token("foo");
   if (foo_token == RTAS_UNKNOWN_SERVICE)
      return;

Add a rtas_service_present method, which provides a more conventional
boolean interface for testing the existence of an RTAS method.

As the first step in consolidating the pseries hotplug cpu code,
create platforms/pseries/hotplug-cpu.c and move rtas_stop_self()
into it.  Do the rtas token initialisation in a new initcall, rather
than rtas_initialize().

Per email discussion, it appears that rtas_stop_self()
and pSeries_mach_cpu_die() should not be compiled if
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is not defined. This patch adds
#ifdefs around these bits of code.

Only call into RTAS when booted with panic=0 because the RTAS call
does not return.  The system has to be rebooted via the HMC or via the
management console right now.  This is cumbersome and not what the
default panic=180 is supposed to do.

The rtas console doesn't have to be Cell specific.  If we get both

Noticing the following might_sleep warning (dump_stack()) during kdump
testing when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP is enabled. All secondary CPUs
will be calling rtas_set_indicator with interrupts disabled to remove
them from global interrupt queue.

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at

To fix this issue, rtas_set_indicator_fast() is added so that will not
wait for RTAS 'busy' delay and this new function is used for kdump (in
xics_teardown_cpu()) and for CPU hotplug ( xics_migrate_irqs_away() and
xics_setup_cpu()).

Note that the platform architecture spec says that set-indicator
on the indicator we're using here is not permitted to return the
busy or extended busy status codes.
