Changed HOTPLUG_CPU dependency to SMP and either ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE or
ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE, aligning with systems' suspend/hibernation capabilities.
This update link CPU hotplugging more logically with platforms' capabilities.

configs ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE and ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE are now selected
only if required platform dependencies are met.

During the configuration process with 'make randconfig' followed by
'make olddefconfig', we observed a warning indicating an unmet direct
dependency for the HOTPLUG_CPU option. The dependency in question relates to
various PowerPC configurations (PPC_PSERIES, PPC_PMAC, PPC_POWERNV,
FSL_SOC_BOOKE) which were not enabled, yet the HOTPLUG_CPU was being
erroneously selected due to an implicit assumption by the PM_SLEEP_SMP option.
This misalignment in dependencies could potentially lead to inconsistent kernel
configuration states, especially when considering the necessary hardware
support for CPU hot-plugging on PowerPC platforms. The patch aims to correct
this by ensuring that ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE is contingent upon the
appropriate PowerPC configurations being active.

steps to reproduce (before applying the patch):

Run 'make pseries_le_defconfig'
Run 'make menuconfig'
Enable hibernation [ Kernel options -> Hibernation (aka 'suspend to disk') ] 
Disable [ Platform support -> IBM PowerNV (Non-Virtualized) platform support ]
Disable [ Platform support -> IBM pSeries & new (POWER5-based) iSeries ]
Enable SMP [ Processor support -> Symmetric multi-processing support ]
Save the config
Run 'make olddefconfig'
