Sorry about that. I neither have the hardware nor the toolchain
to test it. I guess this problem doesn't exist for mn10300 since it
already includes linux/cpu.h when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y

Does the below updated patch help for PA-RISC?

parisc/CPU hotplug: Add missing call to notify_cpu_starting()

The scheduler depends on receiving the CPU_STARTING notification, without
which we end up into a lot of trouble. So add the missing call to
notify_cpu_starting() in the bringup code.
