Cover letter [PATCHv3 0/5] arm64: initial CPU hotplug support
Quoted 3 lines · Mark Rutland

The following patches add basic HOTPLUG_CPU support to arm64, which combined with appropriate firmware (e.g. [1]) can be used to power CPUs up and down dynamically.

Just for the record, couple of points:

- as we will be expanding the PSCI operations with cpu_suspend, it makes more sense to decouple it from SMP and rename smp_operations to cpu_operations (or something else without 'smp').
- migrate_irqs() is pretty generic. You can look at arm and other architectures and maybe (later) move the code somewhere in kernel/irq/.

Otherwise the patches look good.

Thanks.
