Hotplug CPU: don't check cpu_online after take_cpu_down

Akinobu points out that if take_cpu_down() succeeds, the cpu must be offline.
Remove the cpu_online() check, and put a BUG_ON().

Quoting Akinobu Mita:
   Actually the cpu_online() check was necessary before appling this
   stop_machine: simplify patch.

   With old __stop_machine_run(), __stop_machine_run() could succeed
   (return !IS_ERR(p) value) even if take_cpu_down() returned non-zero value.
   The return value of take_cpu_down() was obtained through kthread_stop()..
