That does not work.

drivers/built-in.o: In function `.store_online':
cpu.c:(.ref.text+0xf5c): undefined reference to `.cpu_hotplug_driver_lock'
cpu.c:(.ref.text+0xfc8): undefined reference to `.cpu_hotplug_driver_unlock'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

cpu_hotplug_driver_lock is only defined on pseries, but HOTPLUG_CPU is
also defined on pmac.

Well, the stuff was merged ... so we need to fix it.

Nathan, the problem is that the above wlil define ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE
for any powerpc platform that has HOTPLUG_CPU. So a kernel that doesn't
have pSeries support but has hotplug CPU will have a problem, though for
some reason none of my test configs triggered it (I'll have to check why
next week).

The right approach here is to have cpu_hotplug_driver_lock go through
ppc_md. I suppose, along with some of the other CPU hotplug platform
specific bits.


Sounds good to me,  I'll get a patch together.
