Subject: [GIT pull] smp/hotplug fix for 4.11

Linus,

please pull the latest smp-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git smp-urgent-for-linus

A single fix preventing the concurrent execution of the CPU hotplug
callback install/invocation machinery. Long standing bug caused by a
massive brain slip of that Gleixner dude, which went unnoticed for almost a
year.

Thanks,

	tglx
