cpu hotplug: s390 doesn't support additional_cpus anymore.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
s390 doesn't support the additional_cpus kernel parameter anymore since a
long time.  So we better update the code and documentation to reflect
that.

mark such hot-pluggable cpus as disabled entries, one could use this
parameter "additional_cpus=x" to represent those cpus in the cpu_possible_map.

s390 uses the number of cpus it detects at IPL time to also the number of bits
in cpu_possible_map. If it is desired to add additional cpus at a later time
the number should be specified using this option or the possible_cpus option.

possible_cpus=n [s390 only] use this to set hotpluggable cpus.
This option sets possible_cpus bits in
cpu_possible_map. Thus keeping the numbers of bits set
constant even if the machine gets rebooted.
This option overrides additional_cpus.
