[patch 20/20] cpu/hotplug: Convert hotplug locking to percpu rwsem

[Thomas Gleixner]

There are no more (known) nested calls to get_online_cpus() so it's
possible to remove the nested call magic and convert the mutex to a
percpu-rwsem, which speeds up get/put_online_cpus() significantly for the
uncontended case.

The contended case (write locked for hotplug operations) is slow anyway, so
the slightly more expensive down_write of the percpu rwsem does not matter.
