[PATCH 1/3] powerpc: Don't preempt_disable() in show_cpuinfo()

This causes warnings from cpufreq mutex code. This is also
rather unnecessary and ineffective. If we really want to
prevent concurrent unplug, we could take the unplug read
lock but I don't see this being critical.

We used to not put the newline between the CPU part and the summary
part on UP kernels. This is a rather pointless ifdef so take it out.
