I have tried to track down what is happening here. The culprint is: config SUSPEND_SMP bool depends on SUSPEND_SMP_POSSIBLE && PM_SLEEP select HOTPLUG_CPU default y It seems that due to the fact that SUSPEND_SMP is default y then kconfig enforce the "select HOTPLUG_CPU". And this happens despite the fact that PM_SLEEP is 'n' (but SUSPEND_SMP_POSSIBLE is 'y'). It is somewhere in sym_calc_value() or one of the childs that suddenly causes the change. But I find it hard to follow this part of the logic in kconfig. Roman - can you help here with what is going on?
