So, in the core case, we are ok as long as any cpu in the core is
present in the imc_cpumask. It need not have to be the smallest online
cpu in the core.

Can the same logic be applied to the earlier nest case ?

We can have a single function for cpu_offline and cpu_online which
implements these checks and sets the cpu bit if required.

ppc_entity_imc_cpu_offline(unsigned int cpu, cpumask_t
			   entity_imc_mask,
			   entity_imc_change_cpu_context_fn)
{
	.
	.
	.
	
}


static ppc_nest_imc_cpu_offline(unsigned int cpu)
{
	return ppc_entity_imc_cpu_offline(cpu, nest_imc_mask,
					  nest_imc_change_cpu_context);
}

And similar ones for core imc and thread imc.

Does this sound reasonable ?
