Subject: [PATCH v2 00/11] Optimization to improve CPU online/offline on Powerpc
Here are some optimizations and fixes to make CPU online/offline
faster and hence result in faster bootup.
Its based on top of my v5 coregroup support patchset.
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20200810071834.92514-1-srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com/t/#u
Anton reported that his 4096 cpu (1024 cores in a socket) was taking too
long to boot. He also analyzed that most of the time was being spent on
updating cpu_core_mask.
The first two patches should solve Anton's immediate problem.
On the unofficial patches, Anton reported that the boot time came from 30
mins to 6 seconds. (Basically a high core count in a single socket
configuration). Satheesh also reported similar numbers.
The rest are cleanups/optimizations.
Since cpu_core_mask is an exported symbol for a long duration, lets retain
as a snapshot of cpumask_of_node.

Observations:
CPU bringup time reduced to 4 seconds from 233 seconds on this 1024 CPU
system. This resulted in System boot up time reducing to 98 seconds from
330 seconds. The actual improvement would depend on your system topology.
