 A: The following happen, listed in no particular order :-)
 
 - A notification is sent to in-kernel registered modules by sending an event
-  CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
+  CPU_DOWN_PREPARE or CPU_DOWN_PREPARE_FROZEN, depending on whether or not the
+  CPU is being offlined while tasks are frozen due to a suspend operation in

 - All process is migrated away from this outgoing CPU to a new CPU
 - All interrupts targeted to this CPU is migrated to a new CPU
 - timers/bottom half/task lets are also migrated to a new CPU
 - Once all services are migrated, kernel calls an arch specific routine
   __cpu_disable() to perform arch specific cleanup.
 - Once this is successful, an event for successful cleanup is sent by an event
-  CPU_DEAD.
