[PATCH 1/2] lock_cpu_hotplug only if CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG

[Rusty Russell]

The cpucontrol mutex is not required when no cpus can go up and down.
Andrew wrote a wrapper for it to avoid #ifdefs, this expands that to
only be defined for CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, and uses it everywhere.

The only downside is that the cpucontrol lock was overloaded by my
recent patch to net/core/flow.c to protect it from reentrance, so
this reintroduces the local flow_flush_sem.  This code isn't speed
critical, so taking two locks when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y is not really
an issue.
