This patch reworks oprofile cpu hotplug code as follows: Introduce ctr_running variable to check, if counters are running or not. The state must be known for taking a cpu on or offline and when switching counters during counter multiplexing. Protect on_each_cpu() sections with get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpu() functions. This is necessary if notifiers or states are modified. Within these sections the cpu mask may not change. Switch only between counters in nmi_cpu_switch(), if counters are running. Otherwise the switch may restart a counter though they are disabled. Add nmi_cpu_setup() and nmi_cpu_shutdown() to cpu hotplug code. The function must also be called to avoid uninitialzed counter usage. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by:
