Linus,

up to: 33d4a5a7a5b4: cpu/hotplug: Fix out-of-bounds read when setting fail state
Two small changes for the cpu hotplug code:
- Prevent out of bounds access which actually might crash the machine
caused by a missing bounds check in the fail injection code
- Warn about unsupported migitation mode command line arguments to make
people aware that they typoed the paramater. Not necessarily a fix
but quite some people tripped over that.
Thanks,
tglx
