Hmmm. I wonder if this is enough to make kexec-on-Tegra-with-SMP-enabled
work without explicitly hot-unplugging all the CPUs first... An
implementation of cpu_kill() was a major part of what was missing. I
thought an implementation of cpu_kill() would require a bunch of code
from cpu_die() too. Does this patch assume cpu_die() has executed first,
and only then cpu_kill() will work, or can cpu_kill() be used on its own?

I believe that's the last use of the calculation performed right at the
start of this function:
cpu = cpu_logical_map(cpu);
Can you remove that?
Also, Peter, can you review these 2 patches as well?
