This series adds support for hotplug of MIPSr6 Virtual Processors such
as found in the I6400.

Patch 1 allows VPs other than VP0 within a MIPSr6 core to start when a
core is booted.

Patch 2 adds support for removing CPUs, allowing CPU hotpug to be used
with MIPSr6 devices.

Patch 3 is a tidy up to move the CPU hotplug config option into the
Kernel type menu within menuconfig.

Based atop 4.7-rc6
