[patch 1/5] Remove entries in /sys/firmware/acpi for processor also.

[Ashok Raj]

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.
