From: Ashok Raj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Processor entries under /sys/firmware/acpi/namespace/ACPI/_SB/CPU* were not
being removed due to acpi_bus_trim not asking for it just for processors. 
Without which a new hot-add after a remove doesnt call appropriate init
functions resulting in subsequent hot-add for same cpu failing.

Not clear why we restricted that to non-processor devices.
