appldata_offline_cpu() is only called from __cpuinit-marked hotplug
notifier callback and from the __exit-marked module_exit function,
therefore candidate for __cpuexit.

BTW the __exit module_exit function appldata_exit() of this driver
fails to unregister_hotcpu_notifier() the notifier_block that was
registered by appldata_init() during module startup. This will lead
to oops if hotplug notification comes after module has been unloaded.
Let's fix this by unregistering the notifier appropriately (before
appldata_offline_cpu()'ing the CPUs).
