[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 030/101] powerpc/pseries/mobility: prevent cpu hotplug during DT update

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Fri Jul 19 2019 - 00:08:45 EST


From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e59a175faa8df9d674247946f2a5a9c29c835725 ]

CPU online/offline code paths are sensitive to parts of the device
tree (various cpu node properties, cache nodes) that can be changed as
a result of a migration.

Prevent CPU hotplug while the device tree potentially is inconsistent.

Fixes: 410bccf97881 ("powerpc/pseries: Partition migration in the kernel")
