Sure unintentional - I'll put that back.

Good point. This gets messy and was an unintended change.

Previously the options were:
1) acpi_processor_get_info() failed for other reasons - this code was never called.
2) acpi_processor_get_info() succeeded without acpi_processor_hotadd_init (non hotplug)
   this code then ran and would paper over the problem doing a bunch of cleanup under err.
3) acpi_processor_get_info() succeeded with acpi_processor_hotadd_init called.
   This code then ran and would paper over the problem doing a bunch of cleanup under err.

We should maintain that or argue cleanly against it.

This isn't helped the the fact I have no idea which cases we care about for that bios
bug handling.  Do any of those bios's ever do hotplug?  Guess we have to try and maintain
whatever protection this was offering.

Also, the original code leaks data in some paths and I have limited idea
of whether it is intentional or not. So to tidy the issue up that you've identified
I'll need to try and make that code consistent first.

I suspect the only way to do that is going to be to duplicate the allocations we
'want' to leak to deal with the bios bug detection.

For example acpi_processor_get_info() failing leaks pr and pr->throttling.shared_cpu_map
before this series. After this series we need pr to leak because it's used for the detection
via processor_device_array.

I'll work through this but it's going to be tricky to tell if we get right.
Step 1 will be closing the existing leaks and then we will have something
consistent to build on.
