I believe this fix has to go into 3.16 itself, since this fixes a CPU hotplug
regression on many systems, as reported here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/24/765
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/1/473
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/4/16

I didn't find this fix in mainline yet, so I thought of sending a note.

Thank you!
