RE: [5/7,v8] NUMA Hotplug Emulator: Support cpu probe/release inx86_64

[Zheng, Shaohui]

Both Tejun's and my patches are under review process, the hotplug emulator patchset is much earlier than Tejun's patch. Currently, I did not know how to handle this situation.

It seems that I have 3 options:
1) continue to send this patchset based on current upstream kernel  
2) continue to send this patchset based on upstream kernel + Tejun's patch
3) Postpone the patchset until Tejun's patches are accepted.

Can someone provide some suggestions? Thanks so much.

Thanks & Regards,
Shaohui

This patch is undoubtedly going to conflict with Tejun's unification of 
the 32 and 64 bit NUMA boot paths, specifically the patch at 
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129087151912379.

Tejun, what's the status of that patchset posted on November 27?  Any 
comments about this change?
