I have 4 emails from you on that day (and one private), they pertain to
getting stuck in perf_{install,remove}_from_context(). None of those
emails seem to contain an answer to either of the two above questions.

Did I miss an email?

This is the thread about the difficult to deterministically reproduce
use-after-free.

You can do hotplug like:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

so if syzkaller doesn't know about that, and I suppose you not
knowing this means syzkaller doesn't either, this isn't happening.

Thanks, that disqualifies a bunch of code.
