V3: - Fix a critical typo in
      [PATCH 1/2] ACPI processor: Remove unneeded variable passed by
    - Make checkpatch clean

This prepares physical CPU hotplug functionality for the intel_idle
and acpi_processor (cpuidle/throttling) driver.
This still needs:
  - split up of processor_add function into
    1) A minimum part just registering the core, not trying to init
       anything, because cpu_data(cpu) is not initialized yet
       (feature flags, model, family, all zero), MSRs cannot get
       executed as the cpu is still offline at ACPI hotplug time
    2) A part doing throttling/cpuidle intitialization when it's
       safe to do so
  - Only do minimum registration at ACPI CPU hotplug event time. Delay
    and do full cpuidle/throttling init when the physically hotplugged
    CPU is onlined via echo 1 >/sys/../cpuX/online the first time
