Hmm - this is slightly problematic, given the dual nature of this code.

I agree that it this change is beneficial for the suspend case, but it
is a problem when we are parking an individual CPU for smt=0 or
xen-hptool reasons.

Do we have any hint we can use when taking the CPU down as to whether
we're expecting it to come straight back up again?
