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.
