      powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap mode · f39224a8
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into
      nap mode.  When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus
      started hanging when we put them into nap mode.  Changing to the
      recommended sequence fixes that.
      
      The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that
      keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode.  Clearly we need some way
      to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt,
      decrementer, performance monitor) occurs.  Here we use a bit in
      the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception
      entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return
      to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop.
      We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can
      alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence.
      
      The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing
      there too.
      
      This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on
      32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to
      get trashed.
