kobject (ffff88003ffbb4b8): tried to init an initialized object,something is seriously wrong.

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk]

Hey Greg,

With or without your previous patch (the one that added an cpu_device_release
function) I am getting this in 3.3-rc2.  I did not get this in 3.2.

I added some extra printks to make sure that the handle_vcpu_hotplug_event
code actually did call 'arch_unregister_cpu' which is certainly looks
to be doing.

I hadn't done a bisection yet, but was wondering if this is related
to the previous issues with the sysdev. Or kobject getting more observant.
