  drmgr: do not remove the last CPU

  The drmgr command should not attempt to remove the last cpu from the
  system.

  Normally this would not be an issue as cpu remove operations are initiated
  from the HMC and the HMC will not allow the last cpu to be removed. This
  issue does arise when handling PRRN events and trying to update the affinity
  on a partition that only has one cpu.

  drmgr: Correct -s option handling

  The usage statement for drmgr claims that we can add/remove memory and cpus
  by drc name or drc index. The current code though assumes that any
  use of the -s flag to specify this defaults to drc name.

  This patch updates the option checking for memory and cpu operations to
  allow users to specify a drc index with the -s option. This will be
  handled the same way the -s option for pci devices is handled, assume it
  is a drc name unless it starts with '0x', indicating the string is
  really a hex value, and switching it to a drc index.

  drmgr: Correct null pointer usage

  We can't de-reference NULL pointers, it's not a nice thing to do.

  I found these during some debugging, correcting to avoid future bugs.

  Canonical,

  We would need to migrate powerpc-ibm-utils to version 1.2.24.
