From: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@xxxxxxxxxx> The comment above function partition_sched_domains() clearly state that the cpu_hotplug_lock should be held but doesn't mandate one to abide to it. Add an explicit check backing that comment, so to make it impossible for anyone to miss the requirement.
