[PATCH 4/10] cpu: deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED only to NOTIFY_OKed callbacks with CPU_UP_PREPARE

[Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com>]

The functions in a CPU notifier chain is called with CPU_UP_PREPARE event
before making the CPU online. If one of the callback returns NOTIFY_BAD,
it stops to deliver CPU_UP_PREPARE event, and CPU online operation is canceled.
Then CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the functions in a CPU notifier
chain again.

This CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the functions which have been
called with CPU_UP_PREPARE, not delivered to the functions which haven't
been called with CPU_UP_PREPARE.

The problem that makes existing cpu hotplug error handlings complex is
that the CPU_UP_CANCELED event is delivered to the function that has
returned NOTIFY_BAD, too.

Usually we don't expect to call destructor function against the
object that has failed to initialize. It is like:

	err = register_something();
	if (err) {
		unregister_something(); // bug
		return err;
	}

So it is natural to deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED event only to the functions
that have returned NOTIFY_OK with CPU_UP_PREPARE event and not to call
the function that have returned NOTIFY_BAD. This is what this patch is doing.

Otherwise, every cpu hotplug notifiler has to track whether
notifiler event is failed or not for each cpu.
(drivers/base/topology.c is doing this with topology_dev_map)

Similary this patch makes same thing with CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and
CPU_DOWN_FAILED evnets.
