If an online-attempt on a CPU which has been offlined using H_CEDE with an appropriate cede latency hint fails, don't panic.
Instead print the error message and let the __cpu_up() code notify the CPU Hotplug framework of the failure, which in turn can notify the other subsystem through CPU_UP_CANCELED.
