Subject: [PATCH] cpu/hotplug: dont offline the last non-isolated CPU

From: Ran Xiaokai <ran.xiaokai@....com.cn>

If system has some isolate cpus with "isolcpus=" parameter,
and user try to offline all the non-isolated CPUs, kernel will
first report a warning and then panic when taking the last
non-isolated CPU offline.

Kernel should not panic when user managing CPUs with this
meaningless behavior, so we add a check for this, which
prevent user taking the last non-isolated CPU offline.
