Subject: Re: [PATCH 05/12] sparc: Replace cpu_up/down with
 device_online/offline

From: Qais Yousef <qais.yousef@....com>
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2019 15:38:30 +0000

> The core device API performs extra housekeeping bits that are missing
> from directly calling cpu_up/down.
> 
> See commit a6717c01ddc2 ("powerpc/rtas: use device model APIs and
> serialization during LPM") for an example description of what might go
> wrong.
> 
> This also prepares to make cpu_up/down a private interface for anything
