[PATCH] cpu/hotplug: Fix rollback during error-out in takedown_cpu()

From: Neeraj Upadhyay
Date: Tue Sep 04 2018 - 02:33:53 EST


If takedown_cpu() fails during _cpu_down(), st->state is reset,
by calling cpuhp_reset_state(). This results in an additional
increment of st->state, which results in CPUHP_AP_SMPBOOT_THREADS
state being skipped during rollback. Fix this by not calling
cpuhp_reset_state() and doing the state reset directly in
_cpu_down().
