[RFC 10/10] arm64: smp: Make __cpu_disable() parallel

On a dying cpu, take_cpu_down()->__cpu_disable(), which means if the
teardown path supports parallel, __cpu_disable() confront the parallel,
which may ruin cpu_online_mask etc if no extra lock provides the
protection.

At present, the cpumask is protected by cpu_add_remove_lock, that lock
is quite above __cpu_disable(). In order to protect __cpu_disable() from
parrallel in kexec quick reboot path, introducing a local lock
cpumap_lock.
