Hi Andrew,
Here is what I have come up with(please take a look at this patch).
I was successfully able to get rid of cpu_run_sbin_hotplug() function, but
when I call kobject_hotplug() function, it is finding
top_kobj->kset->hotplug_ops set to NULL and hence returns without calling
call_usermodehelper(). Not sure if this is a bug in kobject_hotplug(),
I feel kobject_hotplug() function should continue even if
top_kobj->kset-hotplug_ops is NULL.
CC'ing grek-KH on this mailing list.
Attached is the patch to remove cpu_run_sbin_hotplug.
