Jan,
If you look in the current xen-unstable staging tree, you'll see I've added
a cpu notifier chain to Xen. We can use this to dynamically
allocate/initialise/de-allocate subsystem state in response to CPU hotplug
events, which is better than static initialisation off cpu_possible_map.
My aim is to get rid of cpu_possible_map from the x86 build altogether (sio
it is not used in common or x86 code) and to restrict cpu_present_map only
to the CPU hotplug subsystem.
Next thing in my sights is to improve the percpu memory area management, but
any other uses of cpu_possible_map, cpu_present_map, or bad for-loops
0...NR_CPUS, please do provide patches to switch to cpu notifiers if you
have time!
