[PATCH v3 04/52] CPU hotplug, perf: Fix CPU hotplug callback registration

["Srivatsa S. Bhat" <srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:

	get_online_cpus();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

	put_online_cpus();

This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).

Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:

	cpu_notifier_register_begin();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
	__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

	cpu_notifier_register_done();


Fix the perf subsystem's hotplug notifier by using this latter form of
callback registration.

Also provide a bare-bones version of perf_cpu_notifier() that doesn't
invoke the notifiers for the already online CPUs. This would be useful
for subsystems that need to perform a different set of initialization
for the already online CPUs, or don't need the initialization altogether.
