From: Sven Schnelle svens@linux.ibm.com Date: Tue, 8 Dec 2020 07:35:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] s390/smp: perform initial CPU reset also for SMT siblings
Not resetting the SMT siblings might leave them in unpredictable state. One of the observed problems was that the CPU timer wasn't reset and therefore large system time values where accounted during CPU bringup.
