It would also increase the latency of CPU-hotunplug operations.
Is that a big deal?
I thought that was the whole deal with this patchset - making cpu
hotunplugs lighter and faster mostly for powersaving.  That said, just
removing stop_machine call would be a pretty good deal and I don't
know how meaningful reducing CPU hotunplug latency is.  Srivatsa?

Thanks.
