[PATCH] prevent ia64 from invoking irq handlers on offline CPUs

[Paul E. McKenney]

Make ia64 refrain from clearing a given to-be-offlined CPU's bit in the
cpu_online_mask until it has processed pending irqs.  This change
prevents other CPUs from being blindsided by an apparently offline CPU
nevertheless changing globally visible state.
