We've always had interdependencies and freezer-related problems. That's why PF_NOFREEZE exists in the first place. Claiming this is somehow CPU hotplug-related is disingenious, since the freezer hasn't even been used for that historically, yet clearly we *do* have the NOFREEZE stuff. Those kernel threads tend to exists for a reason.
