* PM / Documentation: Update docs about suspend and CPU hotplugSrivatsa S. Bhat2011-10-221-0/+275
Update the documentation about the interaction between the suspend (S3) call path and the CPU hotplug infrastructure. This patch focusses only on the activities of the freezer, cpu hotplug and the notifications involved. It outlines how regular CPU hotplug differs from the way it is invoked during suspend and also tries to explain the locking involved. In addition to that, it discusses the issue of microcode update during CPU hotplug operations. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
