This caused lockdep issues as reported https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/2 On addition of each cpu, resources are cleared and re-allocated each time, all in critical section as part of start_secondary() call which has interrupts disabled. To resolve this issue, the pseries_notify_cpuidle_add_cpu() call is is now being replaced by a hotplug notifier which would prevent cpuidle resources from being released and allocated each time cpu is onlined in the critical code path.
