  • Update the documentation about the interaction between the suspend (S3) call
    path and the CPU hotplug infrastructure.
    This patch focusses only on the activities of the freezer, cpu hotplug and
    the notifications involved. It outlines how regular CPU hotplug differs from
    the way it is invoked during suspend and also tries to explain the locking
    involved. In addition to that, it discusses the issue of microcode update
    during CPU hotplug operations.
