Hello Thomas,

The cpuhp_issue_call() hang happens during boot and before I get the chance to log
in with ssh. Can you be more specific about what information you are looking for?

Anyway, the result of a new bisect I ran is as follows:
* good: 631ddaba5905 ("Merge branches 'pm-sleep' and 'powercap'").
* good: 80f1b3dea9d4 ("Merge branch 'device-properties'").
* bad:  a67485d4bf97 ("Merge tag 'acpi-4.10-rc1' of
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm").

Does this make sense to you?

Thanks,

Bart.
