Vitaly Kuznetsov 10e66760fa x86/smpboot: Unbreak CPU0 hotplug
A hang on CPU0 onlining after a preceding offlining is observed. Trace
shows that CPU0 is stuck in check_tsc_sync_target() waiting for source
CPU to run check_tsc_sync_source() but this never happens. Source CPU,
in its turn, is stuck on synchronize_sched() which is called from
native_cpu_up() -> do_boot_cpu() -> unregister_nmi_handler().

So it's a classic ABBA deadlock, due to the use of synchronize_sched() in
unregister_nmi_handler().

Fix the bug by moving unregister_nmi_handler() from do_boot_cpu() to
native_cpu_up() after cpu onlining is done.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
