cpu_hotplug_begin() and cpu_hotplug_done() are the interfaces to acquire the writer lock of the cpu_hotplug.lock. The interfaces are used along with cpu_maps_update_begin() / cpu_maps_update_done() to serialize the updates to the system cpu maps, such as cpu_online_mask and cpu_present_mask. cpu_present_mask is updated by the ACPI processor handler. Therefore, this patch changes the interfaces to global, and exports them in cpu.h.
