vCPU removing code depends on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU as it uses remove_cpu()
and add_cpu(). Make the vCPU removing interface building with
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

../drivers/virt/acrn/hsm.c: In function ‘remove_cpu_store’:
../drivers/virt/acrn/hsm.c:389:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘remove_cpu’; [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   remove_cpu(cpu);

../drivers/virt/acrn/hsm.c:402:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘add_cpu’; [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   add_cpu(cpu);

Fixes: 279dcf693ac7 ("virt: acrn: Introduce an interface for Service VM to control vCPU")

Shouldn't the real solution for this be that remove_cpu() and add_cpu()
have function prototypes for when this is not enabled in the kernel
build?

Something like this in linux/cpu.h?

Putting #ifdef in .c files like this is not a good idea at all.

Then, at runtime, you can determine if you need to create this sysfs
file or not, as you do not want to expose it to userspace if the kernel
can not handle it, right?

Right. I don't want to expose the sysfs to userspace if the kernel built
w/o CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU. But how to implement that if #ifdef is not used?
misc_register() creates sysfs with .groups (acrn_attr_groups)
unconditionally, then userspace can see the interface even it doesn't
work.

Thanks
