    [POWERPC] Defer processing of interrupts when the CPU wakes from sleep mode · a560643e
    Paul Mackerras 提交于
    This provides a way to defer processing of an interrupt that wakes the
    processor out of sleep mode.  On 32-bit platforms that use an
    interrupt to wake the processor, we have to have interrupts enabled in
    hardware at the point where we go to sleep, otherwise the processor
    will never wake up.  However, because interrupts are logically
    disabled at this point, we don't want to process the interrupt
    straight away.
    
    This is handled by setting the _TLF_SLEEPING flag.  When we get an
    interrupt and _TLF_SLEEPING is set, we firstly clear the MSR_EE
    (external interrupt enable) bit in the saved MSR value, and secondly
    we then return to the address in the link register, like we do for
    _TLF_NAPPING, but without actually handling the interrupt.
    
    Note that this is handled somewhat differently on powerbooks, so this
    new code will only be used on non-Apple machines.
