Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ACPI: Acquire writer lock to update cpu maps

acpi_map_lsapic() is called from acpi_processor_hotadd_init() to update
cpu_possible_mask and cpu_present_mask.  acpi_unmap_lsapic() is called
from acpi_processor_remove() to update cpu_possible_mask.  Currently,
they are either unprotected or protected with the reader lock, which is
not correct.

This patch protects them with the writer lock with cpu_hotplug_begin()
along with cpu_maps_update_begin(), which must be held before calling
cpu_hotplug_begin().  It also protects arch_register_cpu() /
arch_unregister_cpu(), which creates / deletes a sysfs cpu device
interface.
