Subject: perf/x86/intel/uncore: Clean up hotplug conversion fallout

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit 1aa6cfd33df492939b0be15ebdbcff1f8ae5ddb6 upstream.

The recent conversion to the hotplug state machine kept two mechanisms from
the original code:

 1) The first_init logic which adds the number of online CPUs in a package
    to the refcount. That's wrong because the callbacks are executed for
    all online CPUs.

    Remove it so the refcounting is correct.

 2) The on_each_cpu() call to undo box->init() in the error handling
    path. That's bogus because when the prepare callback fails no box has
    been initialized yet.

    Remove it.
