In addition to this patch, there are a few other patches that are required
by hotplug but can go in independently.

03/24 - spapr: Consider max_cpus during xics initialization
04/24 - spapr: Support ibm,lrdr-capacity device tree property
05/24 - spapr: Reorganize CPU dt generation code (Maybe?)
06/24 - spapr: Consolidate cpu init code into a routine
18/24 - xics_kvm: Don't enable KVM_CAP_IRQ_XICS if already enabled
19/24 - xics_kvm: Add cpu_destroy method to XICS

Should I post these as a separate set (pre-requisites for sPAPR CPU hotplug)
so that they can be pushed independently of the core hotplug patchset ?

Bharata.
