I think -EBUSY would be more appropriate than -EPERM, perhaps?

Assuming cpu 0 is online is not okay in generic code.  This should be
something like:

	int cpu, first_cpu, error = 0;

	/* We take all of the non-boot CPUs down in one shot to avoid races
	 * with the userspace trying to use the CPU hotplug at the same time
	 */
	mutex_lock(&cpu_add_remove_lock);
	cpus_clear(frozen_cpus);
	first_cpu = first_cpu(cpu_online_mask);
	printk("Disabling non-boot CPUs ...\n");
	for_each_online_cpu(cpu) {
		if (cpu == first_cpu)
			continue;

Same problem here.

Otherwise, I think the patch looks okay.
