[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3] hvm: vmx/svm_cpu_up_prepare should be called only once

These routines are first called via CPU_UP_PREPARE notifier by the BSP and then by the booting ASP from vmx_cpu_up()/_svm_cpu_up(). Avoid the unnecessary second call. Becasue BSP doesn't go through CPU_UP_PREPARE it is a special case and so we pass 'bsp' flag to hvm_funcs.cpu_up() to help it
