cpu: make sure that cpu/online file created before KOBJ_ADD is emitted

It fixes race between udev and hotplugged CPU registration by defining
"online" attribute statically, so that device_add() would create it
before notifying udev about new CPU.

Original issue report is at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/198
