Comment:
I thought I would post an update on this. I ran through the idea that
Matt D. posted up there about num_possible_cpus() returning a non 1.
For me it returned a 3. So I looked around in the code to see what I
could dig up.
It looks like that with hotplug cpu enabled that num_possible_cpus()
returns how many processors it thinks the computer can take, rather then
the number installed. So I tried changing num_possible_cpus() to
num_online_cpus() and now it works like a champ for me. I'll post a
patch.
