[PATCH] I/OAT: remove CPU hotplug lock from net_dma_rebalance

["Chris Leech" <christopher.leech@intel.com>]

Remove the lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() calls from net_dma_rebalance

The lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() sequence in net_dma_rebalance
is both incorrect (as pointed out by David Miller) because lock_cpu_hotplug()
may sleep while the net_dma_event_lock spinlock is held, and unnecessary (as
pointed out by Andrew Morton) as spin_lock() disables preemption which
protects from CPU hotplug events.
