cpu/hotplug: Remove the 'cpu' member of cpuhp_cpu_state
Currently the setting of the 'cpu' member of struct cpuhp_cpu_state in cpuhp_create() is too late as it is used earlier in _cpu_up(). If kzalloc_node() in __smpboot_create_thread() fails then the rollback will be done with st->cpu==0 causing CPU0 to be erroneously set to be dying, causing the scheduler to get mightily confused and throw its toys out of the pram. However the cpu number is actually available directly, so simply remove the 'cpu' member and avoid the problem in the first place.
