x86/reboot: Always use NMI fallback when shutdown via reboot vector IPI fails
[ Upstream commit 747d5a1bf293dcb33af755a6d285d41b8c1ea010 ] A reboot request sends an IPI via the reboot vector and waits for all other CPUs to stop. If one or more CPUs are in critical regions with interrupts disabled then the IPI is not handled on those CPUs and the shutdown hangs if native_stop_other_cpus() is called with the wait argument set. Such a situation can happen when one CPU was stopped within a lock held section and another CPU is trying to acquire that lock with interrupts disabled. There are other scenarios which can cause such a lockup as well. In theory the shutdown should be attempted by an NMI IPI after the timeout period elapsed. Though the wait loop after sending the reboot vector IPI prevents this. It checks the wait request argument and the timeout. If wait is set, which is true for sys_reboot() then it won't fall through to the NMI shutdown method after the timeout period has finished. This was an oversight when the NMI shutdown mechanism was added to handle the 'reboot IPI is not working' situation. The mechanism was added to deal with stuck panic shutdowns, which do not have the wait request set, so the 'wait request' case was probably not considered. Remove the wait check from the post reboot vector IPI wait loop and enforce that the wait loop in the NMI fallback path is invoked even if NMI IPIs are disabled or the registration of the NMI handler fails. That second wait loop will then hang if not all CPUs shutdown and the wait argument is set.
