Revert: "ring-buffer: Do not have boot mapped buffers hook to CPU hotplug"
A crash happened when testing cpu hotplug with respect to the memory mapped ring buffers. It was assumed that the hot plug code was adding a per CPU buffer that was already created that caused the crash. The real problem was due to ref counting and was fixed by commit 2cf97338 ("ring-buffer: Fix refcount setting of boot mapped buffers"). When a per CPU buffer is created, it will not be created again even with CPU hotplug, so the fix to not use CPU hotplug was a red herring. In fact, it caused only the boot CPU buffer to be created, leaving the other CPU per CPU buffers disabled. Revert that change as it was not the culprit of the fix it was intended to be.
