77be36de8b Features:
- Xen ACPI memory and CPU hotplug drivers - allowing Xen hypervisor
    to be aware of new CPU and new DIMMs
  - Cleanups
 Bug-fixes:
  - Fixes a long-standing bug in the PV spinlock wherein we did not
    kick VCPUs that were in a tight loop.
  - Fixes in the error paths for the event channel machinery.

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.9-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen

Pull Xen update from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "This has two new ACPI drivers for Xen - a physical CPU offline/online
  and a memory hotplug.  The way this works is that ACPI kicks the
  drivers and they make the appropiate hypercall to the hypervisor to
  tell it that there is a new CPU or memory.  There also some changes to
  the Xen ARM ABIs and couple of fixes.  One particularly nasty bug in
  the Xen PV spinlock code was fixed by Stefan Bader - and has been
  there since the 2.6.32!

  Features:
   - Xen ACPI memory and CPU hotplug drivers - allowing Xen hypervisor
     to be aware of new CPU and new DIMMs
   - Cleanups
  Bug-fixes:
   - Fixes a long-standing bug in the PV spinlock wherein we did not

Fix up a few semantic conflicts with the ACPI interface changes in
drivers/xen/xen-acpi-{cpu,mem}hotplug.c.

39adc483d3 xen/acpi: ACPI cpu hotplug
This patch implement real Xen ACPI cpu hotplug driver as module.
When loaded, it replaces Xen stub driver.

For booting existed cpus, the driver enumerates them.
For hotadded cpus, which added at runtime and notify OS via
device or container event, the driver is invoked to add them,
parsing cpu information, hypercalling to Xen hypervisor to add
them, and finally setting up new /sys interface for them.

4f8c85272c xen: remove redundant NULL check before unregister_and_remove_pcpu().
unregister_and_remove_pcpu on a NULL pointer is a no-op, so the NULL check in
sync_pcpu can be removed.

f65c9bb3fb xen/pcpu: Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface
This patch provide Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface.
User can use it for their own purpose, like power saving:
by offlining some cpus when light workload it save power greatly.

Its basic workflow is, user online/offline cpu via sys interface,
then hypercall xen to implement, after done xen inject virq back to dom0,
and then dom0 sync cpu status.
