I need to update the description against Toshi's comment as follows:

"I agree with this change as driver's remove interface can fail.
However, there are other callers to this function, which do not check
the return value.  I suppose there is no impact to the other paths since
you only changed the CPU hotplug path to fail properly, but please
confirm this is the case.  I recommend documenting this change to the
change log."

I have already checked that the patch does not impact the other path
with the exception of CPU and Memory hotplug path. So I will adds the
result of investigation and following Vasislis's problem into the patch
and resend to lklml.
