cpu/hotplug: Handle early registration gracefully

We switched the hotplug machinery to smpboot threads. Early registration of
hotplug callbacks, i.e. from do_pre_smp_initcalls(), happens before the
threads are initialized. Instead of moving the thread init, we simply handle
it in the hotplug code itself and invoke the function directly.
