I don't have those on RHEL-6, and they aren't mentioned in upstream
"Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt".

"Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-system-cpu" says about probe &
release:

    Description:    Dynamic addition and removal of CPU's.  This is not hotplug
                    removal, this is meant complete removal/addition of the CPU
                    from the system.

That's not my purpose here, since that would be probably even more
complex than (or the same as) real ACPI CPU hotplug / hot-unplug.

Thanks!
