[POWERPC] Fix might-sleep warning on removing cpus
Noticing the following might_sleep warning (dump_stack()) during kdump testing when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP is enabled. All secondary CPUs will be calling rtas_set_indicator with interrupts disabled to remove them from global interrupt queue. BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c:463 in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():1 Call Trace: [C00000000FFFB970] [C000000000010234] .show_stack+0x68/0x1b0 (unreliable) [C00000000FFFBA10] [C000000000059354] .__might_sleep+0xd8/0xf4 [C00000000FFFBA90] [C00000000001D1BC] .rtas_busy_delay+0x20/0x5c [C00000000FFFBB20] [C00000000001D8A8] .rtas_set_indicator+0x6c/0xcc [C00000000FFFBBC0] [C000000000048BF4] .xics_teardown_cpu+0x118/0x134 [C00000000FFFBC40] [C00000000004539C] .pseries_kexec_cpu_down_xics+0x74/0x8c [C00000000FFFBCC0] [C00000000002DF08] .crash_ipi_callback+0x15c/0x188 [C00000000FFFBD50] [C0000000000296EC] .smp_message_recv+0x84/0xdc [C00000000FFFBDC0] [C000000000048E08] .xics_ipi_dispatch+0xf0/0x130 [C00000000FFFBE50] [C00000000009EF10] .handle_IRQ_event+0x7c/0xf8 [C00000000FFFBF00] [C0000000000A0A14] .handle_percpu_irq+0x90/0x10c [C00000000FFFBF90] [C00000000002659C] .call_handle_irq+0x1c/0x2c [C00000000058B9C0] [C00000000000CA10] .do_IRQ+0xf4/0x1a4 [C00000000058BA50] [C0000000000044EC] hardware_interrupt_entry+0xc/0x10 --- Exception: 501 at .plpar_hcall_norets+0x14/0x1c LR = .pseries_dedicated_idle_sleep+0x190/0x1d4 [C00000000058BD40] [C00000000058BDE0] 0xc00000000058bde0 (unreliable) [C00000000058BDF0] [C00000000001270C] .cpu_idle+0x10c/0x1e0 [C00000000058BE70] [C000000000009274] .rest_init+0x44/0x5c To fix this issue, rtas_set_indicator_fast() is added so that will not wait for RTAS 'busy' delay and this new function is used for kdump (in xics_teardown_cpu()) and for CPU hotplug ( xics_migrate_irqs_away() and xics_setup_cpu()). Note that the platform architecture spec says that set-indicator on the indicator we're using here is not permitted to return the busy or extended busy status codes.
