[Xen-devel] [RFC PATCH V3 11/16] netback: print alert and bail when scratch space is not available.

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>]

CPU online event causes our callback to allocate scratch space for
this CPU, which may fail. The simplest and best action when NAPI or
kthread is scheduled on that CPU is to bail.
