In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sched/deadline: Stop dl_server before CPU goes offline

IBM CI tool reported kernel warning1 when running a CPU removal
operation through drmgr2. i.e "drmgr -c cpu -r -q 1"

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/cpudeadline.c:219 cpudl_set+0x58/0x170

Git bisects to: commit 4ae8d9aa9f9d ("sched/deadline: Fix dl_server getting stuck")

This happens since:
- dl_server hrtimer gets enqueued close to cpu offline, when
kthread_park enqueues a fair task.
- CPU goes offline and drmgr removes it from cpu_present_mask.
- hrtimer fires and warning is hit.

Fix it by stopping the dl_server before CPU is marked dead.
