Doc/cpu-hotplug: Specify race-free way to register CPU hotplug callbacks

Recommend the usage of the new CPU hotplug callback registration APIs
(__register_cpu_notifier() etc), when subsystems need to also perform
initialization for already online CPUs. Provide examples of correct
and race-free ways of achieving this, and point out the kinds of code
that are error-prone.
