powerpc: Fix failure to shutdown with CPU hotplug

I tracked down the shutdown regression to CPUs not dying
when being shut down during power-off. This turns out to
be due to the system_state being SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, which
this code doesn't take as a valid state for shutting off
CPUs in.

This has never made sense to me, but when I added hotplug
code to implement hibernate I only "made it work" and did
not question the need to check the system_state. Thomas
Gleixner helped me dig, but the only thing we found is
that it was added with the original commit that added CPU
hotplug support.
