Please forward my message to that someone else then. The whole world
knows CPU hotplug is fragile and there are people working on improving
that. There's no need for you guys to pound on it, we know it is broken.
I'm sure you can find a lot other things in the kernel to pound on.
Things which make a lot more sense than CPU hotplug.

Thanks.
