Subject: possible circular locking dependency mmap_sem/cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem

Hello,

After commit fc8dffd "cpu/hotplug: Convert hotplug locking to percpu rwsem"
the following lockdep splat started showing up on some systems while running
ltp's madvise06 test (right after first dirty_pages call [1]).
