I have previously asked the question whether we should provide a
stub weak function for the !HOTPLUG_CPU case for this, which would
alleviate the concerns around if (IS_ENABLED()) in some of the later
hotplug vCPU patches... which failed to get _any_ responses.
So, I'm now going to deem the comment I received about if (IS_ENABLED())
potentially causing issues to be unimportant, and thus there's no
need for a stub weak function. If we start getting compile errors,
then we can address the issue at that point. So far, however, the
kernel build bot has not identified that this as an issue... and it's
been chewing on this entire patch set for well over a month now.
