I see I failed to answer this; no it will happen but now reads like: s/cpuhp_state/&_up/ Where we used to have a single lock protecting the hotplug stuff, we now have 2, one for bringing stuff up and one for tearing it down. This got rid of lock cycles that included cpu-up and cpu-down parts; those are false positives because we cannot do cpu-up and cpu-down concurrently. But this report only includes a single (cpu-up) part and therefore is not affected by that change other than a lock name changing.
