You mean CPUHP_CPUIDLE_DEAD instead of _PSERIES_DEAD and _POWERNV_DEAD? We could do that but you would have to ensure that only one CPUIDLE driver registers itself at a time and for those powerpc drivers it looks like you could have two registered (not sure about ARM's little/big (if you could have two of those later at run-time)). For the ONLINE state we have dynamic allocation of IDs. If it is possible to rework the code to use only ONLINE & PRE_DOWN instead of DEAD then we wouldn't have this. I can't say at this point if we do dynamic allocation of the DEAD IDs. Sebastian
