stop_machine/cpu hotplug: fix disable_nonboot_cpus
disable_nonboot_cpus calls _cpu_down. But _cpu_down requires that the caller already created the stop_machine workqueue (like cpu_down does). Otherwise a call to stop_machine will lead to accesses to random memory regions. When introducing this new interface (9ea09af3bd3090e8349ca2899ca2011bd94cda85 "stop_machine: introduce stop_machine_create/destroy") I missed the second call site of _cpu_down. So add the missing stop_machine_create/destroy calls to disable_nonboot_cpus as well. Fixes suspend-to-ram/disk and also this bug: [ 286.547348] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 6b6b6b6b [ 286.548940] IP: [<c0150ca4>] __stop_machine+0x88/0xe3 [ 286.550598] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP [ 286.560580] Pid: 3273, comm: halt Not tainted (2.6.28-06127-g238c6d5 [ 286.560580] EIP: is at __stop_machine+0x88/0xe3 [ 286.560580] Process halt (pid: 3273, ti=f1a28000 task=f4530f30 [ 286.560580] Call Trace: [ 286.560580] [<c03d04e4>] ? _cpu_down+0x10f/0x234 [ 286.560580] [<c012a57e>] ? disable_nonboot_cpus+0x58/0xdc [ 286.560580] [<c01360c0>] ? kernel_poweroff+0x22/0x39 [ 286.560580] [<c0136301>] ? sys_reboot+0xde/0x14c [ 286.560580] [<c01331b2>] ? complete_signal+0x179/0x191 [ 286.560580] [<c0133396>] ? send_signal+0x1cc/0x1e1 [ 286.560580] [<c03de418>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x2d/0x3c [ 286.560580] [<c0133b65>] ? group_send_signal_info+0x58/0x61 [ 286.560580] [<c0133b9e>] ? kill_pid_info+0x30/0x3a [ 286.560580] [<c0133d49>] ? sys_kill+0x75/0x13a [ 286.560580] [<c01a06cb>] ? mntput_no_expire+ox1f/0x101 [ 286.560580] [<c019b3b3>] ? dput+0x1e/0x105 [ 286.560580] [<c018ef87>] ? __fput+0x150/0x158 [ 286.560580] [<c0157abf>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x137/0x159 [ 286.560580] [<c010329f>] ? sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x34 Reported-and-tested-by: "Justin P.
