<p>Hi All,<br>
<br>
I wanted to discuss about one of the corner case exists in 4.9
kernel (4.9.x) where<br>
If hotplug of one of the CPU fails due to failure in one of the
callback,<br>
which is to be called after <span class="s" style="box-sizing:
inherit;">"notify:online"</span><span class="p"
style="box-sizing: inherit;">(as notify_online will create
sysfs nodes<br>
for the hotplug cpu) .<br>
<br>
So, while cleaning up notify_dead() does not get called as </span><span
