---------------------------
cpu: Rename defer_registration->switched_out

The defer_registration parameter is used to prevent a CPU from
initializing at startup, leaving it in the "switched out" mode. The
name of this parameter (and the help string) is confusing. This patch
renames it to switched_out, which should be more descriptive.

As far as I know, this CPU hasn't even compiled for quite some time now. I'm under the impression that the only reason it's still in the tree is in the hope that someone will revive it at some point (which is a pretty bad reason since it would still exist in the VCS history if we remove it). I'm happy to update that CPU as well if that's not the case.

You have a pending review.
