If a new hotplugged CPU requires a work around which
was not applied at boot time, there is nothing we can
do but simply fail the booting.

I think Will commented on this previously. Was a decision made to leave
this patch as it is and subsequently add support for enabling local
workarounds for hot-plugged CPUs? I'm fine with this given that most
Yes. Applying work arounds for a hot-plugged CPU will be addressed in a
new series. I updated the cover letter, but missed to update the same here.
