From: Satyam Sharma appldata_offline_cpu() is only called from __cpuinit-marked hotplug notifier callback and from the __exit-marked module_exit function, therefore candidate for __cpuexit. BTW the __exit module_exit function appldata_exit() of this driver fails to unregister_hotcpu_notifier() the notifier_block that was registered by appldata_init() during module startup. This will lead to oops if hotplug notification comes after module has been unloaded. Let's fix this by unregistering the notifier appropriately (before appldata_offline_cpu()'ing the CPUs).
