Public bug reported:

[Impact]
The numa mask subset check can often lead to system hang or crash during CPU 
hotplug and system suspend operation if NUMA is disabled. This is mostly 
observed on HMP systems where the CPU compute capacities are different and ends 
up in different scheduler domains. Since cpumask_of_node is returned instead 
core_sibling, the scheduler is confused with incorrect cpumasks(e.g. one CPU in 
two different sched domains at the same time) on CPU hotplug.

[Fix]
The following patch fixes this issue:
