stop_machine: Provide stop_machine_cpuslocked()



Some call sites of stop_machine() are within a get_online_cpus() protected
region.

stop_machine() calls get_online_cpus() as well, which is possible in the
current implementation but prevents converting the hotplug locking to a
percpu rwsem.

Provide stop_machine_cpuslocked() to avoid nested calls to get_online_cpus().
