This is new. It is v4.7-rc1 new. The hotplug rework moved the notified
around and after

e9cd8fa4fcfd ("sched/migration: Move calc_load_migrate() into CPU_DYING")
f2785ddb5367 ("sched/hotplug: Move migration CPU_DYING to sched_cpu_dying()")

we have no more CPU_DEAD, just CPU_DYING which is invoked with
interrupts off. I don't see anything wrong with pushing this over to
RCU.
