This check must go. As I mentioned, either we define what this means properly
or to me the status property of cpu nodes must not be relied upon on ARM.

I can add a patch on top of your series that defines the behaviour for both
arm32 and arm64 when we reach agreement and code initializing
cpu_logical_map should be patched as well, accordingly.
