"and the I2C bus remains accessible by the i2c-driver."

The `smp_core99_host_open' makes sure it does not get closed twice so
that works.

So the old CPU_UP_CANCELED case would have close it and I forgot to copy
that part.

I don't think it is needed to rename the function as such.  OpenBUS/
CloseBUS would be more matching than to the sate it runs in me think.
But it is not my call. For the "adding the function to the prepare
notifier" part:
