Even if acpi_processor_handle_eject() offlines cpu, there is a chance
to online the cpu after that. So the patch closes the window by using
get/put_online_cpus().

Why does the patch change _cpu_up() logic?

The patch cares the race of hot-remove cpu and _cpu_up(). If the patch
does not change it, there is the following race.

hot-remove cpu                         |  _cpu_up()
------------------------------------- ------------------------------------
call acpi_processor_handle_eject()     |
     call cpu_down()                   |
     call get_online_cpus()            |
                                       | call cpu_hotplug_begin() and stop here
     call arch_unregister_cpu()        |
     call acpi_unmap_lsapic()          |
     call put_online_cpus()            |
                                       | start and continue _cpu_up()
     return acpi_processor_remove()    |
continue hot-remove the cpu            |

So _cpu_up() can continue to itself. And hot-remove cpu can also continue
itself. If the patch changes _cpu_up() logic, the race disappears as below:

hot-remove cpu                         | _cpu_up()
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
call acpi_processor_handle_eject()     |
     call cpu_down()                   |
     call get_online_cpus()            |
                                       | call cpu_hotplug_begin() and stop here
     call arch_unregister_cpu()        |
     call acpi_unmap_lsapic()          |
          cpu's cpu_present is set     |
          to false by set_cpu_present()|
     call put_online_cpus()            |
                                       | start _cpu_up()
                                       | check cpu_present() and return -EINVAL
     return acpi_processor_remove()    |
continue hot-remove the cpu            |
