All device objects in the driver model contain fields that control the
handling of various power management activities. However, it's not
always useful. There are few instances where pseudo devices are added
to the model just to take advantage of many other features like
kobjects, udev events, and so on. One such example is cpu devices and
their caches.

The sysfs for the cpu caches are managed by adding devices with cpu
as the parent in cpu_device_create() when secondary cpu is brought
online. Generally when the secondary CPUs are hotplugged back in as part
of resume from suspend-to-ram, we call cpu_device_create() from the cpu
hotplug state machine while the cpu device associated with that CPU is
not yet ready to be resumed as the device_resume() call happens bit
later. It's not really needed to set the flag is_prepared for cpu
devices as they are mostly pseudo device and hotplug framework deals
with state machine and not managed through the cpu device.

This often results in annoying warning when resuming:
Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
CPU1: Booted secondary processor
 cache: parent cpu1 should not be sleeping
CPU1 is up
CPU2: Booted secondary processor
 cache: parent cpu2 should not be sleeping
CPU2 is up
.... and so on.

So in order to fix these kind of errors, we could just completely avoid
doing any power management related initialisations and operations if
they are not used by these devices.

Lets add no_pm_required flags to indicate that the device doesn't
require any sort of pm activities and all of them can be completely
skipped. We can use the same flag to also avoid adding not used *power*
sysfs entries for these devices. For now, lets use this for cpu cache
devices.

v2->v3:
	- renamed no_pm_required to no_pm
	- fixed the wrong comment in device_pm_add
	- add missing check in dpm_sysfs_remove reported by Eugeniu
	- added Ulf's reviewed-by tag

v1->v2:
	- dropped setting the flag for cpu devices, for now just cpu caches
	  will make use of this new flag.

RFC->v1:
	- dropped the idea of adding cpu hotplug callback to deal just
	  with cpu devices, instead add a new flag in the device pm_info
	  structure

Running suspend/resume ~500 times on H3-Salvator-X with this patch
didn't reveal any regressions. The annoying warnings are gone.
Console log and .config are available at:
https://gist.github.com/erosca/1af11aa62e16903e1b6964be6a9eea77

Tested-by: Eugeniu Rosca <erosca@de.adit-jv.com>

Thanks!
Eugeniu.
