FWIW I think not necessary. enabled is only set in register_cpu() and aim here is to
never call that for CPUs in this state.

Anyhow, I got distracted by the firmware bug I found whilst trying to test this but
now have a test setup that hits this path (once deliberately broken), so will
see what we can do about that doesn't have affect those masks.
