[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86/S3: Fix cpu pool scheduling after suspend/resume (v2)

[Ben Guthro <benjamin.guthro@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This review is another S3 scheduler problem with the system_state variable 
introduced with the following changeset:
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=269f543ea750ed567d18f2e819e5d5ce58eda5c5

Specifically, the cpu_callback function that takes the CPU down during suspend, 
and back up during resume.
We were seeing situations where, after S3, only CPU0 was in cpupool0. Guest 
performance suffered greatly, since all vcpus were only on a single pcpu. 
Guests under high CPU load showed the problem much more quickly than an idle 
guest.

Removing this if condition forces the CPUs to go through the expected 
online/offline state, and be properly scheduled after S3.

This also includes a necessary partial change proposed earlier by Tomasz 
Wroblewski here:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-01/msg02206.html

It should also resolve the issues discussed in this thread:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-11/msg01801.html

v2:
Address concerns from Juergen Gross about the cpus not being put back into the 
pool they were in prior to suspend
