Hello! This series contains a few CPU-hotplug updates:
1. Provide exact tracking of incoming CPUs, which means that there is now a definite point in the CPU-hotplug code at which RCU starts paying attention to incoming CPUs. 2. Get rid of obsolete CPU_STARTING reference, courtesy of Sebastian Andrzej Siewior. 3. Convert rcutorture's CPU-hotplug handling to use the shiny new state machine, courtesy of Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
