Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Thomas Gleixner 530e9b76ae cpu/hotplug: Remove obsolete cpu hotplug register/unregister functions
hotcpu_notifier(), cpu_notifier(), __hotcpu_notifier(), __cpu_notifier(),
register_hotcpu_notifier(), register_cpu_notifier(),
__register_hotcpu_notifier(), __register_cpu_notifier(),
unregister_hotcpu_notifier(), unregister_cpu_notifier(),
__unregister_hotcpu_notifier(), __unregister_cpu_notifier()

are unused now. Remove them and all related code.

Remove also the now pointless cpu notifier error injection mechanism. The
states can be executed step by step and error rollback is the same as cpu
down, so any state transition can be tested w/o requiring the notifier
error injection.

Some CPU hotplug states are kept as they are (ab)used for hotplug state
tracking.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
