Hi Zhang,

IMO it would useful when we are re-adding the cpu to the system. In that case
we can have scripts in userspace to bring the cpu online as soon as that cpu is
added to the system. 
Now we can have a similar feature in kernel which implicitly brings the cpu
online as soon as its added, but then I think we loose the flexibility for the
user to decide if he wants the cpu online as soon as its added to the system.

So IMHO lets keep that patch, unless anybody disagrees.
