This patchset add cpu hotplug support for hv_24x7 driver by adding online/offline cpu hotplug function. It also add sysfs file "cpumask" to expose current online cpu that can be used for hv_24x7 event count.
Changelog: v1 -> v2 - Changed function to pick active cpu incase of offline from "cpumask_any_but" to "cpumask_last", as cpumask_any_but function pick very next online cpu and incase where we are sequentially off-lining multiple cpus, "pmu_migrate_context" can add extra latency. - Suggested by: Gautham R Shenoy. - Change documentation for cpumask and rather then hardcode the initialization for cpumask_attr_group, add loop to get very first NULL as suggested by Gautham R Shenoy.
