Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cpu: make sure that cpu/online file created before KOBJ_ADD is emitted
Date: Tue, 14 May 2013 16:46:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1368542767-2126-3-git-send-email-imammedo@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1368542767-2126-1-git-send-email-imammedo@redhat.com>

It fixes race between udev and hotplugged CPU registration by defining
"online" attribute statically, so that device_add() would create it
before notifying udev about new CPU.

Original issue report is at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/198
