I'm not going to apply this anyway, but can you please explain what's the
problem you're trying to solve here?

OK, currently it is for QEMU to do cpu online automatically after
hot-plug a cpu,
and maybe potentially for real platform's cpu
plug/unplug implementation.
with this notifier, we don't need any GPIOes,IO ports, and other
hardware cost if we do have an EC chip in board to trigger kernel's 
cpu process for this.

Yep, you said you'll reject this anyway,
but I have to ask do this notifier offend
any rules of your development?
or some other reasons?

Thanks!

You need to make ACPI eject/bus/device notifications go to the processor
objects rather than to listen to the EC events.

Well, yes, it does.  CPU offline/online is not only for hotplugging and people
do not expect CPUs to actually physically go away after using offline.

Thanks,
