Since we keep a driver global mask of online CPUs and base the decision whether PMU needs to be migrated upon it, we need to make sure the migration is done for all registered PMUs (so GPUs). To do this we need to track the current CPU for each PMU and base the decision on whether to migrate on a comparison between global and local state. At the same time, since dynamic CPU hotplug notification slots are a scarce resource and given how we already register the multi instance type state, we can and should add multiple instance of the i915 PMU to this same state and not allocate a new one for every GPU. v2: * Use pr_notice. (Chris) v3: * Handle a nasty interaction where unregistration which triggers a false CPU offline event.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
