[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen/smp: Fix bringup bug in AP code.

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The CPU hotplug code has now a callback to help bring up the CPU.
Without the call we end up getting:

 BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 29s! [migration/0:6]
Modules linked in:
CPU ] Pid: 6, comm: migration/0 Not tainted 3.3.0upstream-01180-ged378a5 #1

This fixes it.
