Please convert to cpu hotplug state machine.

There is no reason why you need to setup the rproc device on
DOWN_PREPARE. It's sufficient to do that when the CPU is dead, so you can
use a symetric callback prep/dead.

Perhaps we should add support for "reverse" functionality to the state
machine core. I'll have a look later how hard that'd be.
