Just to recap...  The reason I sent this series is that there's a known,
detectable regression in a memory hotplug "benchmark".  This affects the
5.15 series.

While I agree that we should look into the impact on CPU hotplug, I
think we should probably focus on the *known* memory hotplug issue for 5.15.
