Hi,
I think I also encountered this similar issue after resume (and possibly a
real deadlock yesterday before/during suspend?). One message:

(the other was with the locks acquired lock reversed, i.e. cpu_hotplug.lock
was held on CPU0 and CPU1 tries to lock &per_cpu(...)). This one is tagged
"ondemand", the other one "pm-suspend" (reproducable with a high probability).

Please use '2f7021a8', without the '8' the commit hash is ambiguous.
(git describe says: v3.10-rc4-2-g2f7021a8)
I ran six times `pm-suspend` without any lockdep warnings. I reverted a66b2e5
and 2f7021a8 on top of current master (47188d3).

> The intent of this commit was to avoid warnings during CPU hotplug, which
> indicated that offline CPUs were getting IPIs from the cpufreq governor's
> work items. But the real root-cause of that problem was commit a66b2e5
> (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume) because it totally
> skipped all the cpufreq callbacks during CPU hotplug in the suspend/resume
> path, and hence it never actually shut down the cpufreq governor's worker
> threads during CPU offline in the suspend/resume path.
>
> Reflecting back, the reason why we never suspected that commit as the
> root-cause earlier, was that the original issue was reported with just the
> halt command and nobody had brought in suspend/resume to the equation.
>
> The reason for _that_ in turn, it turns out is that, earlier halt/shutdown
> was being done by disabling non-boot CPUs while tasks were frozen, just like
> suspend/resume.... but commit cf7df378a (reboot: rigrate shutdown/reboot
> to boot cpu) which came somewhere along that very same time changed that
> logic: shutdown/halt no longer takes CPUs offline.
> Thus, the test-cases for reproducing the bug were vastly different and thus
> we went totally off the trail.
>
> Overall, it was one hell of a confusion with so many commits affecting
> each other and also affecting the symptoms of the problems in subtle
> ways. Finally, now since the original problematic commit (a66b2e5) has been
> completely reverted, revert this intermediate fix too (2f7021a), to fix the
> CPU hotplug deadlock. Phew!
