[PATCH 2/2] ARM: SMP: use per cpu state to replace

CPU hotplug will bring following call trace in the RT kernel:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at linux/kernel/rtmutex.c:707
pcnt: 1 0 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 128, pid: 0, name: swapper
[<800413a0>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xe4) from [<804ff214>] (rt_spin_lock+0x30/0x5c)
[<804ff214>] (rt_spin_lock+0x30/0x5c) from [<8005a848>] (complete+0x1c/0x54)
[<8005a848>] (complete+0x1c/0x54) from [<804f59f8>] (cpu_die+0x34/0x70)
[<804f59f8>] (cpu_die+0x34/0x70) from [<8003b840>] (cpu_idle+0x54/0xd8)
[<8003b840>] (cpu_idle+0x54/0xd8) from [<104f9ecc>] (0x104f9ecc)
To avoid this call trace, we use per cpu variable to replace
completion, and it is safe for this modification since all reference
of per cpu_state variable is in the preempt disabled context.
