No. freeze_secondary_cpus() is really for hibernation. Look at the exit
conditions there.
So you really want a seperate function which depends on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
and provides an inline stub for the CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n case.
But I have a hard time to see how that stuff works at all on
ia64:
cpu_down() might sleep, i.e. it must be called from preemptible
context. smp_processor_id() is invalid from preemtible context.
As this is obviously broken and ia64 is in keep compile mode only, it
should just go away.
