While registering the cpuhotplug callbacks for nest-imc, if we fail in
the cpuhotplug online path for any random node in a multi node
system (because the opal call to stop nest-imc counters fails for that
node), ppc_nest_imc_cpu_offline() will get invoked for other nodes who
successfully returned from cpuhotplug online path.
This call trace is generated since in the ppc_nest_imc_cpu_offline()
path we are trying to migrate the event context, when nest-imc
counters are not even initialized.
Patch to add a check to ensure that nest-imc is registered before
migrating the event context.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
