    Subject[PATCH 11/22] arm64: Populate cpuinfo after notify_cpu_starting
    Date
    From: "Suzuki K. Poulose" <suzuki.poulose@arm.com>

    This patch delays populating the cpuinfo for a new (hotplugged)
    CPU until the notifiers have executed. This will enable us to verify
    if the new (hotplugged) CPU has all the capabilities which the system
    already has. If it doesn't, we could prevent it from turning online and
    also modifying the system wide feature register status.
