Valentin reported that unplugging a CPU occasionally results in a warning in the tick broadcast code which is triggered when an offline CPU is in the broadcast mask. This happens because the outgoing CPU is not removing itself from the broadcast masks, especially not from the broadcast_force_mask. The removal happens on the control CPU after the outgoing CPU is dead. It's a long standing issue, but the warning is harmless. Rework the hotplug mechanism so that the outgoing CPU removes itself from the broadcast masks after disabling interrupts and removing itself from the online mask.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
