CPU Hotplug is a long established name for this process, whether for correctness or power, particularly in Linux Kernel contexts.

Absolutely nobody hotplugs a CPU for power management.

Sigh… I guess we’re doing this!

The term cpu-hotplug in the arm world almost never means hot-adding a new package/die to the platform, we usually mean taking CPUs online/offline for power management. e.g. cpuhp_offline_cpu_device()

That's marketing overloading a term, not technology.
