Nope. My patch was a trivial fix for not destroying scheduler domains on 
hotplug events. The problem you're seeing is different.

I'm not an expert in cpu hotplug internal machinery especially on ia64. Recent 
kernels (.22 and up) I've tried on x86 and x86-64 have no issues with cpu 
hotplug. You probably want to submit a bug report (in a separate thread) maybe 
it's a regression in the latest .26-rc series.
