Fine with me.

The point is that for the CPU_RESUME_FAILED case we can be sure that no
cpu will come up due to resume just a little bit later. So we can test
for e.g. a cpupool suddenly having no more cpus available. This is in
contrast to CPU_UP_CANCELLED being signalled just after the one cpu
failing to come up, but before the next cpu is triggered to come up.
