[PATCH] x86_64: Move ondemand timer into own work queue
Taking the cpu hotplug semaphore in a normal events workqueue
is unsafe because other tasks can wait for any workqueues with
it hold. This results in a deadlock.
Move the DBS timer into its own work queue which is not
affected by other work queue flushes to avoid this.
Has been acked by Venkatesh.
