Why not just NULL out the cpu_power function pointers on platforms  
that don't have the feature bit instead? (or the other way around:  
NULL by default, and set only on platforms that have imbalanced threads.

It'd be even nicer to do so without using up a cpu feature bit, since  
it'd then only be used in determining whether to set the ppc_md  
function pointer or not, but I don't know if there's a convenient way  
to probe for this at runtime (cpu device tree node properties?).
