I think we need to explicitly make this change visible to the other
observers, to make sure that a PM notifier doesn't end up using the
stale per-cpu pointer.

Please note that this could conflict with the following patch :

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200729051310.18436-1-saiprakash.ranjan@codeaurora.org

Otherwise looks good to me.
