[PATCH] driver core / cpu: Check if NUMA node is valid before bringing CPU up

["Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@sisk.pl>]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

There is a potential race condition between cpu_subsys_online()
and either acpi_processor_remove() or remove_memory() that execute
try_offline_node().  Namely, it is possible that cpu_subsys_online()
will run right after the CPUs NUMA node has been put offline and
cpu_to_node() executed by it will return NUMA_NO_NODE (-1).  In
that case the CPU is gone and it doesn't make sense to call cpu_up()
for it, so make cpu_subsys_online() return -ENODEV then.

Hi Greg,

Can you please kindly queue up this one for 3.12?

I've added the Toshi's ACK as he said it looked good to him. :-)

Thanks,
Rafael
