Please give a better high-level description: outline how an 
IO-APIC will be hotplugged physically and what changes the 
user will experience.

That needs at least 2 paragraphs, not one cursory sentence. Then 
should come technical descriptions - but even those need 
improvements, please first explain the current status quo, then 
explain how that is inadequate for IO-APIC hot-plugging, *then* 
only explain what you are doing in the patch ...

Thanks,
