How's this?

Subject: smp/hotplug,lockdep: Annotate st->done

With the new lockdep cross-release feature, cpu hotplug reports the
following deadlock:

  takedown_cpu()
    irq_lock_sparse()
    wait_for_completion(&st->done)

				cpuhp_thread_fun
				  cpuhp_up_callback
				    cpuhp_invoke_callback
				      irq_affinity_online_cpu
				        irq_local_spare()
					irq_unlock_sparse()
				  complete(&st->done)

However, CPU-up and CPU-down are globally serialized, so the above
scenario cannot in fact happen.

Annotate this by splitting the st->done dependency chain for up and
down.
