Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] cpuhp: fix some st->target issues
Date:   Thu, 26 May 2022 12:06:13 -0400

Several small fixes that clean up some cpuhp inconsistencies.
The first prevents target_store() from calling cpu_down() when
target == state which prevents the cpu being incorrectly marked
as dying.  The second just makes the boot cpu have a valid cpuhp 
target rather than 0 (CPU_OFFLINE) while being in state 
CPU_ONLINE.

A further issue which these two patches don't address is that
the cpuX/online file looks at the device->offline state and can
thus get out of sync with the actual cpuhp state if the cpuhp
target is used to change state.


Cheers,
Phil
