x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code This commit removes the open-coded CPU-offline notification with new common code. Among other things, this change avoids calling scheduler code using RCU from an offline CPU that RCU is ignoring. It also allows Xen to notice at online time that the CPU did not go offline correctly. Note that Xen has the surviving CPU carry out some cleanup operations, so if the surviving CPU times out, these cleanup operations might have been carried out while the outgoing CPU was still running. It might therefore be unwise to bring this CPU back online, and this commit avoids doing so. Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
