Hi Peter,
Primarily I tested off-lining multiple cpus and checking if cpumask file is updating as expected,
followed with perf stat commands.
But I missed the scenario where we are off-lining CPU while running perf stat. My bad, thanks
for pointing it out.
I will fix this issue and send new version of the patchset.

Thanks,
Kajol Jain
