Well, the stuff was merged ... so we need to fix it.

Nathan, the problem is that the above wlil define ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE
for any powerpc platform that has HOTPLUG_CPU. So a kernel that doesn't
have pSeries support but has hotplug CPU will have a problem, though for
some reason none of my test configs triggered it (I'll have to check why
next week).

The right approach here is to have cpu_hotplug_driver_lock go through
ppc_md. I suppose, along with some of the other CPU hotplug platform
specific bits.

Cheers,
Ben.
