arm: Prevent hotplug rwsem recursion
The text patching functions which are invoked from jump_label and kprobes code are protected against cpu hotplug at the call sites. Use stop_machine_cpuslocked() to avoid recursion on the cpu hotplug rwsem. stop_machine_cpuslocked() contains a lockdep assertion to catch any unprotected callers.
