We just need to skip rebuild_root_domains(). I think rebuild_sched_domains()
should still happen.

The issue, AFAIU, is that we assume this hotplug operation results in changes
in cpuset and the DEADLINE accounting is now wrong and must be re-calculated.
But s2ram will cause hotplug operation without actually changing the cpuset
configuration - the re-calculation is not required. But it'd be good to get
a confirmation from Juri.

I think it's fine to use this variable from the cpuhp callback context only.
Which I think this cpuset workfn is considered an extension of.

But you're right, I can't use cpuhp_tasks_frozen directly in
rebuild_root_domains() as I did in v1 because it doesn't get cleared after
calling the last _cpu_up(). force_rebuild will only be set after the last cpu
is brought online though - so this should happen once at the end.

(will update the comment too)

It seems I still need more time to study the code. What appeared simple, looks
is actually not..
