Subject: [PATCH 06/17] powerpc/smp: Delay processing steal time at boot
Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2025 23:23:54 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251204175405.1511340-7-srikar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251204175405.1511340-1-srikar@linux.ibm.com>
Before processing steal metrics, system also needs to know the number of
entitled CPUs. Till that time, delay the steal processing till the time
entitlement information is available.
