This looks incorrect, it may triggers everytime when online CPU.
Because patch 7 moved CPUHP_AP_KVM_STARTING *AFTER*
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE as CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE, then cpuhp_thread_fun()
runs the new CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE in *non-atomic* context:

cpuhp_thread_fun(unsigned int cpu) {
...
	if (cpuhp_is_atomic_state(state)) {
		local_irq_disable();
		st->result = cpuhp_invoke_callback(cpu, state, bringup, st->node, &st->last);
		local_irq_enable();

		WARN_ON_ONCE(st->result);
	} else {
		st->result = cpuhp_invoke_callback(cpu, state, bringup, st->node, &st->last);
	}
...
}

static bool cpuhp_is_atomic_state(enum cpuhp_state state)
{
	return CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD <= state && state < CPUHP_AP_ONLINE;
}

The hardware_enable_nolock() now is called in 2 cases:
1. in atomic context by on_each_cpu().
2. From non-atomic context by CPU hotplug thread.

so how about "WARN_ONCE(preemptible() && cpu_active(cpu))" ?

Ditto.
