Now that GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES calls arch_register_cpu(), which can be
overridden by the arch code, switch over to this to allow common code
to choose when the register_cpu() call is made.

x86's struct cpus come from struct x86_cpu, which has no other members
or users. Remove this and use the version defined by common code.

This is an intermediate step to the logic being moved to drivers/acpi,
where GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES will do the work when booting with acpi=off.

This patch also has the effect of moving the registration of CPUs from
subsys to driver core initialisation, prior to any initcalls running.

    by Jonathan Cameron. Add note about initialisation order change.
Changes since RFC v3:
  * Adapt to removal of EXPORT_SYMBOL()s
