From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

When a CPU is marked as disabled, but online capable in the MADT, PSCI
applies some firmware policy to control when it can be brought online.
PSCI returns DENIED to a CPU_ON request if this is not currently
permitted. The OS can learn the current policy from the _STA enabled bit.

Handle the PSCI DENIED return code gracefully instead of printing an
error.

Note the alternatives to the PSCI cpu_boot() callback do not
return -EPERM so the change in smp.c has no affect.

See https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0022/f/?lang=en page 58.

v8: Note in commit message that the -EPERM guard on the error print
    only affects PSCI as other options never use this error code.
    Should they do so in future, that may well indicate that they
    now support similar refusal to boot.

Thanks for the check and clarification that -EPERM is only sensible
to PSCI. With the clarification:
