Once stop_machine() is gone from the CPU offline path, we won't be able to depend on preempt_disable() or local_irq_disable() to prevent CPUs from going offline from under us. Use the get/put_online_cpus_atomic() APIs to prevent CPUs from going offline, while invoking from atomic context. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.
