[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen/x86: clear per cpu stub page information in cpu_smpboot_free()

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

cpu_smpboot_free() removes the stubs for the cpu going offline, but it
isn't clearing the related percpu variables. This will result in
crashes when a stub page is released due to all related cpus gone
offline and one of those cpus going online later.

Fix that by clearing stubs.addr and stubs.mfn in order to allocate a
new stub page when needed.
