The migration of LPARs across Power systems affects many attributes
including that of the associativity of CPUs. The patches in this
set execute when a system is coming up fresh upon a migration target.
They are intended to,
* Recognize changes to the associativity of CPUs recorded in internal
data structures when compared to the latest copies in the device tree.
* Generate calls to other code layers to reset the data structures
related to associativity of the CPUs.
* Re-register the 'changed' entities into the target system.
Re-registration of CPUs mostly entails acting as if they have been
newly hot-added into the target system.

hotplug/cpu: Conditionally acquire/release DRC index
hotplug/cpu: Add operation queuing function
hotplug/cpu: Provide CPU readd operation
mobility/numa: Ensure numa update does not overlap
numa: Disable/enable arch_update_cpu_topology
pmt/numa: Disable arch_update_cpu_topology during CPU readd
powerpc/rtas: Allow disabling rtas_event_scan
hotplug/rtas: No rtas_event_scan during property update
hotplug/pmt: Update topology after PMT
---
Changes in patch:
-- Restructure and rearrange content of patches to co-locate
similar or related modifications
-- Rename pseries_update_drconf_cpu to pseries_update_processor
-- Simplify code to update CPU nodes during mobility checks.
Remove functions to generate extra HP_ELOG messages in favor
of direct function calls to dlpar_cpu_readd_by_index.
-- Revise code order in dlpar_cpu_readd_by_index() to present
more appropriate error codes from underlying layers of the
implementation.
-- Add hotplug device lock around all property updates
-- Add call to rebuild_sched_domains in case of changes
-- Various code cleanups and compaction
-- Rebase to 4.17-rc5 kernel
