Jonathan any chance this is Tegra specific? Our ARCH_BRCMSTB SoCs which use a Brahma-B15 which uses nearly the same ca15 processor functions defined in arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S reports the following *before* changes:

Does your platform support CPU idle? I see this being triggered
during CPU idle transitions ...

It does, but not with an idle state resulting in powering down secondary cores. We do have CPU hotplug with power gating as well as system wide suspend states that result in power gating secondaries and they appear to be working fine.

I use the attached script to randomly cycle hot plug/unplug through each 4 cores and it has been running over 10k cycles.
