Matthias Schiffer 4fdd0736a3 of: base: Skip CPU nodes with "fail"/"fail-..." status
Allow fully disabling CPU nodes using status = "fail".

This allows a bootloader to change the number of available CPUs (for
example when a common DTS is used for SoC variants with different numbers
of cores) without deleting the nodes altogether, which could require
additional fixups to avoid dangling phandle references.

Unknown status values (everything that is not "okay"/"ok", "disabled" or
"fail"/"fail-...") will continue to be interpreted like "disabled",
meaning that the CPU can be enabled during boot.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
