[Blueprint multi-core-cpu-hotplug] Add support for cpu hotplug on ARM
Blueprint changed by Amit Kucheria:
Whiteboard changed:
[amitk: 2/11/2010]
* At LDS, it was decided to implement the functionality to allow hotpluging of cores, but leave the question of when to do it to policy
* If possible, common code will be identified and the implementations refactored
[vingu: 19/11/2010 - 09/12/2010]

https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/PowerManagement/Doc/Hotplug
Regarding blocked item:
*cpu hotplug trace events patch is under review
*cpu hotplug plugin for pytimechart will be submitted only when a trace event patch will be accepted
Status:
In progress
