[RESEND PATCH] ARM: kexec: Fix validating CPU hotplug support

[HuKeping]

Commit 2103f6cba61a8b8bea3fc1b63661d830a2125e76 added a hotplug checking in
machine_kexec_prepare(), but it will lead a failure when loading the
crash-kernel in some cases.

Kexec utility can load the crash kernel by two ways:
1. kexec -l kernel-image
2. kexec -p kernel-image

In case #1, for rapid reboot, it's correct to do the hotplug checking things,
for it will shut down cpus in _cpu_down() later when command "kexec -e" be
sent, this routine needs the support of cpu hotplug.

In case #2, for use on panic, it's unnecessary to do the same thing, the whole
routing has no business with cpu shutting down. Check for cpu hot plug will
lead a failure to load the kernel.

Prior to this patch, if the first kernel is not support the CPU hotplug, when
a crash come, the kexec utility will not work.
