xen/x86: Don't BUG on CPU0 offlining

This really doesn't look like a fix.

The merge window is over.

So I'm not pulling this without way more explanations of why I should.

Hmm, okay. I estimated the risk of adding this new driver to be rather low, as it won't be used other than in development systems right now.

In case you don't want to pull it I'm fine with sending you another pull request without this driver.
