ARM: imx: do not bring up unavailable cores
The i.MX6 Quad can be fused as i.MX6 Dual chip, and similarly i.MX6
DualLite can be fused as i.MX6 Solo. The actual number of available
cores can be found out from SCU.
Since we do not reflect the fusing thing in device tree, the function
arm_dt_init_cpu_maps() will always call set_cpu_possible(true) for 4
cores on i.MX6 Quad/Dual and 2 cores for i.MX6 DualLite/Solo. This
causes failures when kernel tries to bring those unavailable cores
online. For example, the following failure message will be seen when
booting an i.MX6 Solo chip.
CPU1: failed to come online
Though kernel will still boot fine, the message is somehow annoying.
Let's get rid of it by calling set_cpu_possible(false) on those
unavailable cores.
While at it, the set_cpu_possible(true) for available cores is removed,
since it's already been done in arm_dt_init_cpu_maps().
