Split the ACPI processor driver into two parts, one that is non-modular, resides in the ACPI core and handles the enumeration and hotplug of processors and one that implements the rest of the existing processor driver functionality. The non-modular part uses an ACPI scan handler object to enumerate processors on the basis of information provided by the ACPI namespace and to hook up with the common ACPI hotplug infrastructure. It also populates the ACPI handle of each processor device having a corresponding object in the ACPI namespace, which allows the driver proper to bind to those devices, and makes the driver bind to them if it is readily available (i.e. loaded) when the scan handler's .attach() routine is running. There are a few reasons to make this change. First, switching the ACPI processor driver to using the common ACPI hotplug infrastructure reduces code duplication and size considerably, even though a new file is created along with a header comment etc. Second, since the common hotplug code attempts to offline devices before starting the (non-reversible) removal procedure, it will abort (and possibly roll back) hot-remove operations involving processors if cpu_down() returns an error code for one of them instead of continuing them blindly (if /sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/force_remove is unset). That is a more desirable behavior than what the current code does. Finally, the separation of the scan/hotplug part from the driver proper makes it possible to simplify the driver's .remove() routine, because it doesn't need to worry about the possible cleanup related to processor removal any more (the scan/hotplug part is responsible for that now) and can handle device removal and driver removal symmetricaly (i.e. as appropriate). Some user-visible changes in sysfs are made (for example, the 'sysdev' link from the ACPI device node to the processor device's directory is gone and a 'physical_node' link is present instead and a corresponding 'firmware_node' is present in the processor device's directory, the processor driver is now visible under /sys/bus/cpu/drivers/ and bound to the processor device), but that shouldn't affect the functionality that users care about (frequency scaling, C-states and thermal management).
