Interesting. So if the problem is that we need to clear cpu bit in
several cpumaks (e.g. nohz.idle_cpus_mask) when we stop_this_cpu(),
then I'd say let's clear cpumasks which are needed to be clear (doing
some of the things which sched_cpu_dying() does, except that we need
it on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU systems too). The idea of notifiers also looks
interesting.


x86 and sched gurus, can you please help?
