[PATCH] smpboot: Add smpboot state variables instead of reusing CPU hotplug states

2015-10-15 Thread Daniel Wagner
The cpu hotplug state machine in smpboot.c is reusing the states from cpu.h. That is confusing when it comes to the CPU_DEAD_FROZEN usage. Paul explained to me that he was in need of an additional state for destinguishing between a CPU error states. For this he just picked CPU_DEAD_FROZEN.
