Thanks for the solution.

I tested your patch on Exynos 3250 and it is still not sufficient. After
hotplugging CPU1 ~10 times the stall happens (set_next_event is called
on wrong CPU).

The patch 3/3 ("clocksource: exynos_mct: Fix too early ISR fire up on
wrong CPU") is needed as the clockevents_config_and_register should be
called a little later.

Do you have rest of patches (2/3 and 3/3) or should I resend them?

And one minor nit in your patch: 'cpu' local variable in
exynos4_mct_cpu_notify() is no longer used so it can be removed.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
