Hi all,

Version 0.5 (should actually compile) of the HotPlug CPU Patch
is out. This adds /sbin/hotplug support (thanks Greg), which is
almost useful.

Of course, /sbin/hotplug falls far short of allowing you to
stop CPUs from going down or coming up, or do something *before* CPUs
go down or up, and it uses env vars to pass what it's doing, but we've
had worse infrastructure in the kernel *cough*sysctl*cough*. </rant>

Cheers!
Rusty.
