Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is
stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like
start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started. This was not
the case on POWER6 and earlier.
This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an
query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which
are stopped.
This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary
thread would make it to the second kernel.
