Subject: [PATCH] cpu hotplug: fix ksoftirqd termination on cpu hotplug with
 naughty realtime process

Fix ksoftirqd termination on cpu hotplug with naughty real time process.

Assuming the following case:

 - Try to hot remove CPU2 from CPU1.
 - There is a real time process on CPU2, and that process doesn't sleep at all.
 - That rt process and ksoftirqd/2 is migrated to the CPU0

Then ksoftirqd/2 can't stop becasue that rt process runs everlastingly on
CPU0, and CPU1 waiting the ksoftirqd/2's termination hangs up.  To fix this
problem, set the priority of ksoftirqd/2 to max one before kthread_stop().
