Something's missing in that "justification". It should explain why
CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED is not needed anymore.

And looking at patch 3, I'm still unclear as to why this change is done.
Is it that the "ACPI MADT mailbox wakeup method" is going to be used by
TDX guests now too so that you don't need CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED
anymore?

It seems that if acpi_parse_mp_wake() finds an ok wakeup entry, then
offlining is disabled...

Or is it something else?
