Hi,

good catch. Couple of problems, though.

First, what number of cores are we talking about ? We should probably
increase NUM_REAL_CORES as well. Long term, we should get rid of the
dependency to prevent that problem from happening again, but that is a
different issue.

Second, we'll need the same code in get_core_online(). Otherwise the
platform device can be created for the new core (if the core is
re-enabled) but will never be deleted.

Thanks,
Guenter
