powerpc/pseries: unregister VPA when hot unplugging a CPU

The VPA should unregister when offlining a CPU. Otherwise there could be
a short window where 2 CPUs could share the same VPA.

This happens because the hypervisor is still keeping the VPA attached to
the vCPU even if it became offline.

Here is a potential situation:
 1. remove proc A,
 2. add proc B. If proc B gets proc A's place in cpu_present_mask, then
    it registers proc A's VPAs.
 3. If proc B is then re-added to the LP, its threads are sharing VPAs
    with proc A briefly as they come online.

As the hypervisor may check for the VPA's yield_count field oddity, it
may detect an unexpected value and kill the LPAR.
