commit 6726655dfdd2dc60c035c690d9f10cb69d7ea075 upstream.

There is a following AB-BA dependency between cpu_hotplug.lock and
cpuidle_lock:

1) cpu_hotplug.lock -> cpuidle_lock
enable_nonboot_cpus()
 _cpu_up()
  cpu_hotplug_begin()
   LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock)
 cpu_notify()
  ...
  acpi_processor_hotplug()
   cpuidle_pause_and_lock()
    LOCK(cpuidle_lock)

2) cpuidle_lock -> cpu_hotplug.lock
acpi_os_execute_deferred() workqueue
 ...
 acpi_processor_cst_has_changed()
  cpuidle_pause_and_lock()
   LOCK(cpuidle_lock)
  get_online_cpus()
   LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock)

Fix this by reversing the order acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() does
thigs -- let it first execute the protection against CPU hotplug by
calling get_online_cpus() and obtain the cpuidle lock only after that (and
perform the symmentric change when allowing CPUs hotplug again and
dropping cpuidle lock).
