[RFC v0 1/9] smpboot: Add a separate CPU state when a surviving CPU times out

[Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de>]

The CPU_DEAD_FROZEN state is abused to report to cpu_wait_death() that
the operation timeout. It has nothing to do with the pm freezing
process. Introduce a new state to allow proper distinction between the
states and also prepares the code to get rid of all FROZEN states.

This was intruced in
