CPI core will include this file and can not be compiled without it.

ACPI based CPU hotplug needs some functions below:
#ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
extern int arch_register_cpu(int num);
extern void arch_unregister_cpu(int);
#endif

ACPI based cpu hotplug is not implemented in this patch
set and will send out as drivers, so will factoring it
out at that time.

Good catch, will fix it
