thanks - this patch and the next one did the trick to stabilize the
tip/x86/quirks topic tree - no more hotplug crashes and no more build
failures either. The lineup is:

b5fe363: x86: use update_genapic to get rid of ES7000_CLUSTERED_APIC v2
f632ddc: x86: fix wakeup_cpu with numaq/es7000, v2, fix #2
54ac14a: x86: fix wakeup_cpu with numaq/es7000, v2, fix
569712b: x86: fix wakeup_cpu with numaq/es7000, v2

and i've merged them into tip/master as well.
