Well, even without a simulation, I think we shouldn't unconfigure the cpu. Since the processors will be turned back on again when they are needed, I think we should rather keep all the associated structures in order to save some time when turning them on.
Sounds reasonable.
So this means we shouldn't use DR and stick to cpu_offline and the like, right?
That sounds right to me.

Thanks,
