Subject: [PATCH 3/7] oprofile/x86: protect cpu hotplug sections
This patch reworks oprofile cpu hotplug code as follows:
Introduce ctr_running variable to check, if counters are running or
not. The state must be known for taking a cpu on or offline and when
switching counters during counter multiplexing.
Protect on_each_cpu() sections with get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpu()
functions. This is necessary if notifiers or states are
modified. Within these sections the cpu mask may not change.
Switch only between counters in nmi_cpu_switch(), if counters are
running. Otherwise the switch may restart a counter though they are
disabled.
Add nmi_cpu_setup() and nmi_cpu_shutdown() to cpu hotplug code. The
function must also be called to avoid uninitialzed counter usage.
