Subject: [PATCH] cpu hotplug: s390 doesn't support additional_cpus anymore.

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.

-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.
