When poweroff machine, kernel_power_off() call disable_nonboot_cpus().
And if we have HOTPLUG_CPU configured, disable_nonboot_cpus() is not an
empty function but attempt to actually disable the nonboot cpus. Since
system state is SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, play_dead() won't be called and thus
disable_nonboot_cpus() hangs. Therefore, we make this patch to avoid
poweroff failure.

Looks good - but I'm wondering if the "!cpu_isset(cpu, cpu_callin_map)"
can be removed as well?
Also, which -stable branches is this patch applicable?

For X86, IA64, ARM, SPARC64 and most other arch, "!cpu_online(cpu)" is
the only condition of play_dead(). I keep "!cpu_isset(cpu,
cpu_callin_map)" because this does't refuse poweroff and I don't know
why the old condition of play_dead() is so complex.

3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 branch can use it, 3.2 and earlier kernels should do
some small changes.

I removed "!cpu_isset(cpu, cpu_callin_map)" and it works well on
Loongson, but I don't know whether it will affect cavium-octeon...

I have seen the same problem; sometimes it causes a kernel oops too.

This fix works for me.

I do see SMP boot problems ("Attempted to kill the idle task!" panic)
on a 4-way box if the !cpu_isset() check is removed.
