Subject: [PATCH] smpboot: add missing get_online_cpus() when register
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2014 11:30:17 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1406777421-12830-1-git-send-email-laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

If the smpboot_register_percpu_thread() is called after smpboot_create_threads()
but before __cpu_up(), the smpboot thread of the online-ing CPU is not created,
and it results a bug.  So we use get_online_cpus() to prevent it.

smpboot_unregister_percpu_thread() travels all possible CPU, it doesn't need
get_online_cpus() which is removed in the patch.
