   # HEAD: f6f5cd840ae782680c5e94048c72420e4e6857f9 timekeeping: Fix spelling mistake in Kconfig "fullfill" -> "fulfill"

Update/fix two CPU sanity checks in the hotplug and the boot code,
and fix a typo in the Kconfig help text.

( Context: the first two commits are the result of an ongoing 
  annotation+review work of (intentional) tick_do_timer_cpu() data 
  races reported by KCSAN, but the annotations aren't fully cooked 
  yet. )

 Thanks,

	Ingo
