Why it does not need to be stable? Onlining wrong CPU number is not
desired...

You might be just hiding some other real issue, because above stacktrace
is from gs101_cpuhp_pmu_online() which IRQs disabled and preemption
disabled. Provide analysis of the warning, instead of just making it
disappear.

No blank lines between tags.

Missing Fixes tag... and then Cc is not necessary. Please follow
