Deferring ARM CPU-hotplug patch to 4.3

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

I haven't heard from you on the patch below, so I am deferring it
to 4.3.  If I don't hear from you by the 4.3 merge window, I will
assume that you have fixed this some other way and drop it completely.

						Thanx, Paul

    arm: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code
    
    This commit removes the open-coded CPU-offline notification with new
    common code.  In particular, this change avoids calling scheduler code
    using RCU from an offline CPU that RCU is ignoring.  This is a minimal
    change.  A more intrusive change might invoke the cpu_check_up_prepare()
    and cpu_set_state_online() functions at CPU-online time, which would
    allow onlining throw an error if the CPU did not go offline properly.
