Thanks for the change. With it, try-restart is being triggered for
kdump-tools service after CPU add operation but systemd reported
failure with below logs:

Looks like a ratelimit issue with systemd. Is there some systemd option to 
workaround it?

I am running the below command on a PowerVM machine:

# drmgr -c cpu -r -q 1 (to remove a core)
# drmgr -c cpu -a -q 1 (to add it back -> this triggers 8 CPU online udev 
events as SMT is 8)

To conclude, udev rule alone is not sufficient. Need a way to address the 
multiple
requests at once..
