Merge branch 'smp-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull SMP hotplug notifier removal from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This is the final cleanup of the hotplug notifier infrastructure. The
  series has been reintgrated in the last two days because there came a
  new driver using the old infrastructure via the SCSI tree.

  Summary:

   - convert the last leftover drivers utilizing notifiers

   - fixup for a completely broken hotplug user

   - prevent setup of already used states

   - removal of the notifiers

   - treewide cleanup of hotplug state names

   - consolidation of state space

  There is a sphinx based documentation pending, but that needs review
  from the documentation folks"

-	  This option provides a kernel module that can be used to test
-	  the error handling of the cpu notifiers by injecting artificial
-	  errors to CPU notifier chain callbacks.  It is controlled through
-	  debugfs interface under /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
-
-	  If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events
-	  notified, write the error code to "actions/<notifier event>/error".

-	  Example: Inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM)
-
-	  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
-	  # echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error
-	  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
