Yes, that's my understanding too.

The changelog of this patch doesn't seem to suggest that it was written to
address the problem I am facing. Please see my thoughts below..

I'm sure this would help to get rid of the warning, but IMHO, like Paul pointed out,
its rather surprising that the CPU going offline got interrupts *after* coming out of
the stop_machine thing, iow, *after* it was marked offline.. So we need to examine
*this* issue right?
