The patch titled
     simplify cpu_hotplug_begin()/put_online_cpus()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     simplify-cpu_hotplug_begin-put_online_cpus.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: simplify cpu_hotplug_begin()/put_online_cpus()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

cpu_hotplug_begin() must be always called under cpu_add_remove_lock, this
means that only one process can be cpu_hotplug.active_writer.  So we don't
need the cpu_hotplug.writer_queue, we can wake up the ->active_writer
directly.

Also, fix the comment.
