Subject: [ 25/65] ACPI processor: Fix tick_broadcast_mask online/offline regression

From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Feng Tang <feng.tang@...el.com>

commit b7db60f45d74497c723dc7ae1370cf0b37dfb0d8 upstream.

In commit 99b725084 "ACPI processor hotplug: Delay acpi_processor_start()
call for hotplugged cores", acpi_processor_hotplug(pr) was wrongly replaced
by acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() inside the acpi_cpu_soft_notify(). This
patch will restore it back, fixing the tick_broadcast_mask regression:
