[PATCH v3 0/3] Fix oops in shared-processor spinlocks

From: Christopher M. Riedl <hidden>
Date: 2019-08-06 03:05:26

Fixes an oops when calling the shared-processor spinlock implementation
from a non-SP LPAR. Also take this opportunity to refactor
SHARED_PROCESSOR a bit.

Reference:  https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/229

Changes since v2:
 - Directly call splpar_*_yield() to avoid duplicate call to
   is_shared_processor() in some cases

Changes since v1:
 - Improve comment wording to make it clear why the BOOK3S #ifdef is
   required in is_shared_processor() in spinlock.h
 - Replace empty #define of splpar_*_yield() with actual functions with
   empty bodies

  powerpc/spinlocks: Refactor SHARED_PROCESSOR
  powerpc/spinlocks: Rename SPLPAR-only spinlocks
