xen/smp: Fix CPU online/offline bug triggering a BUG: scheduling while atomic.
When a user offlines a VCPU and then onlines it, we get:
NMI watchdog disabled (cpu2): hardware events not enabled
BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/2/0/0x00000002

Call Trace:
[<ffffffff81070571>] __schedule_bug+0x61/0x70
[<ffffffff8158eb78>] __schedule+0x798/0x850

[<ffffffff810349be>] cpu_idle+0xbe/0xe0
[<ffffffff81583599>] cpu_bringup_and_idle+0xe/0x10
The reason for this should be obvious from this call-chain:
cpu_bringup_and_idle:
\- cpu_bringup
| \-[preempt_disable]
|
|- cpu_idle
\- play_dead [assuming the user offlined the VCPU]
| \
| +- (xen_play_dead)
| \- HYPERVISOR_VCPU_off [so VCPU is dead, once user
| | onlines it starts from here]
| \- cpu_bringup [preempt_disable]
|
+- preempt_enable_no_reschedule()
+- schedule()
\- preempt_enable()
So we have two preempt_disble() and one preempt_enable(). Calling
preempt_enable() after the cpu_bringup() in the xen_play_dead
fixes the imbalance.
