Subject[RFC][PATCH 3/4] (Refcount + Waitqueue) implementation for cpu_hotplug "locking"

--
Gautham R Shenoy
Linux Technology Center
IBM India.
"Freedom comes with a price tag of responsibility, which is still a bargain,
because Freedom is priceless!"
This patch provides the (Refcount + Workqueue) implementation for
cpu_hotplug "locking". It is analogous to a unfair rwsem.
