[ Upstream commit 07a75d08cfa1b883a6e1256666e5f0617ee99231 ]
In case SCLP CPU detection does not work a fallback mechanism using SIGP is
in place. Since a cleanup this does not work correctly anymore: new CPUs
are only considered if their type matches the boot CPU.
Before the cleanup the information if a CPU type should be considered was
also part of a structure generated by the fallback mechanism and indicated
that a CPU type should not be considered when adding CPUs.
Since the rework a global SCLP state is used instead. If the global SCLP
state indicates that the CPU type should be considered and the fallback
mechanism is used, there may be a mismatch with CPU types if CPUs are
added. This can lead to a system with only a single CPU even tough there
are many more CPUs.
Address this by simply copying the boot cpu type into the generated data
structure from the fallback mechanism.

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.
