I was always wondering why we're running that logic for every hotplug 
event.
For example, do we care for UP_CANCELED* and DOWN_FAILED* ? Presumably 
nothing should've changed, no ?
btw I'm just going by the name of the event. So UP_CANCELED to me sounds 
like CPU never got to the ONLINE stage and cpuset should not really care.
