hotplug, powerpc, x86: Remove cpu_hotplug_driver_lock()
cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() serializes CPU online/offline operations
when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is set. This lock interface is no longer
necessary with the following reason:
- lock_device_hotplug() now protects CPU online/offline operations,
including the probe & release interfaces enabled by
ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE. The use of cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is
redundant.
- cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is only valid when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE
is defined, which is misleading and is only enabled on powerpc.
This patch removes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() interface. As
a result, ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE only enables / disables the cpu
probe & release interface as intended. There is no functional change
in this patch.
