[ Upstream commit ec9debbd9a88d8ea86c488d6ffcac419ee7d46d9 ]

commit 3ab098df35f8b98b6553edc2e40234af512ba877 (virtio-net: don't respond to
cpu hotplug notifier if we're not ready) tries to bypass the cpu hotplug
notifier by checking the config_enable and does nothing is it was false. So it
need to try to hold the config_lock mutex which may happen in atomic
environment which leads the following warnings:

A correct fix is to unregister the hotcpu notifier during restore and register a
new one in resume.
