    cpu/hotplug: Make target_store() a nop when target == state

    Writing the current state back in hotplug/target calls cpu_down()
    which will set cpu dying even when it isn't and then nothing will
    ever clear it. A stress test that reads values and writes them back
    for all cpu device files in sysfs will trigger the BUG() in
    select_fallback_rq once all cpus are marked as dying.

    kernel/cpu.c::target_store()
            ...
            if (st->state < target)
                    ret = cpu_up(dev->id, target);
            else
                    ret = cpu_down(dev->id, target);

    cpu_down() -> cpu_set_state()
             bool bringup = st->state < target;
             ...
             if (cpu_dying(cpu) != !bringup)
                    set_cpu_dying(cpu, !bringup);

    Fix this by letting state==target fall through in the target_store()
    conditional. Also make sure st->target == target in that case.
