powerpc/cpu: Modify dlpar_cpu_add and dlpar_cpu_remove to allow the
skipping of DRC index acquire or release operations during the CPU
add or remove operations.  This is intended to support subsequent
changes to provide a 'CPU readd' operation.

(!rc) can only be true if acquire_drc is true, so we seem to be only 
invoking dlpar_free_cc_nodes() if acquire_drc is true. Would it be 
better to frame that condition in this manner:

	if (acquire_drc) {
		rc = dlpar_release_drc(drc_index):
		if (!rc)
			dlpar_free_cc_nodes(dn);
	}

Here, we seem to want to invoke dlpar_online_cpu() unconditionally if 
release_drc is false. So, to make that explicit, would it be better to 
frame that as:
	if (release_drc)
		rc = dlpar_acquire_drc(drc_index);
	if (!release_drc || !rc)
		dlpar_online_cpu(dn);
