3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shawn Guo <shawn.guo@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 2f3edfd7e27ad4206acbc2ae99c9df5f46353024 upstream. There is a sync issue with hotplug operation. It's possible that when imx_cpu_kill gets running on primary core, the imx_cpu_die execution on the core which is to be killed hasn't been finished yet. The problem will very likely be hit when running suspend without no_console_suspend setting on kernel cmdline. It uses cpu jumping argument register to sync imx_cpu_die and imx_cpu_kill. The register will be set in imx_cpu_die and imx_cpu_kill will wait for the register being cleared to actually kill the cpu.
