A small argument with myself inline. Feel free to ignore.

Why once? If this for some reason happened on multiple CPUs I think we'd want to know.

I guess you didn't do a nested if here to avoid even longer lines.
Could flip things around though I don't like this much either as it makes
the normal good path exit mid way down.
if (present && enabled)
return arch_register_cpu(pr->id);
if (!cpu_online(pr->id))
return -ENODEV;
pr_err...
add_taint(...
return arch_register_cpu(pr->id);
Ah well. Some code just has to be less than pretty.
