Power9 DD1 has a hardware issue due to which in core whose all threads are
offlined , when any of the CPUs are onlined, they come online with an incorrect
PACA thereby resulting in a crash.
The following fixes sent upstream need to applied to the 17.04 kernel to
get CPU-Hotplug working correctly on a Power9 DD1 system.
1) powerpc/linux.git next, commit a7cd88da9704 ("powernv: Move CPU-
Offline idle state invocation from smp.c to idle.c").
2) powerpc/linux.git next, the commit 900612315788
("powerpc/powernv/smp: Add busy-wait loop as fall back for CPU-
Hotplug").
3) powerpc/linux.git, commit f3b3f28493d932 ("powerpc/powernv/idle:
Don't override default/deepest directly in kernel").
4) powerpc/linux.git next, commit 17ed4c8f81da ("powerpc/powernv:
Recover correct PACA on wakeup from a stop on P9 DD1").
These patches have been backported onto the 17.04 Kernel tagged
Ubuntu-4.10.0-19.21.
