Daniel Jordan cc491d8e64 padata, pcrypt: take CPU hotplug lock internally in padata_alloc_possible
With pcrypt's cpumask no longer used, take the CPU hotplug lock inside
padata_alloc_possible.

Useful later in the series for avoiding nested acquisition of the CPU
hotplug lock in padata when padata_alloc_possible is allocating an
unbound workqueue.

Without this patch, this nested acquisition would happen later in the
series:

      pcrypt_init_padata
        get_online_cpus
        alloc_padata_possible
          alloc_padata
            alloc_workqueue(WQ_UNBOUND)   // later in the series
              alloc_and_link_pwqs
                apply_wqattrs_lock
                  get_online_cpus         // recursive rwsem acquisition

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
