Subject: [PATCH v3] cpu/hotplug: handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable

Currently it just print a warning message but did not
reset cpu_hotplug_disabled when the enable/disable is
unbalanced. The unbalanced enable/disable will lead
the cpu hotplug work abnormally.

Do nothing if an unablanced hotplug enable detected.
