[PATCH 3.10 119/129] arm64: Only enable local interrupts after the CPU is marked online

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx>

commit 53ae3acd4390ffeecb3a11dbd5be347b5a3d98f2 upstream.

There is a slight chance that (timer) interrupts are triggered before a
secondary CPU has been marked online with implications on softirq thread
affinity.
