remove_cpu_store() ignores errors from remove_cpu() and calls
hcall_sos_remove_cpu() even when Linux cannot offline the CPU.
This can leave Linux and ACRN with inconsistent CPU ownership.

Return the offlining error before issuing the hypercall. If the
hypercall subsequently fails, bring the CPU back online only when
it was online before the removal attempt.

Compile-tested CONFIG_ACRN_HSM=m with W=1; no ACRN Service VM runtime test.
