    clockevents: Set dummy handler on CPU_DEAD shutdown · 6f7a05d7
    Thomas Gleixner 提交于
    Vitaliy reported that a per cpu HPET timer interrupt crashes the
    system during hibernation. What happens is that the per cpu HPET timer
    gets shut down when the nonboot cpus are stopped. When the nonboot
    cpus are onlined again the HPET code sets up the MSI interrupt which
    fires before the clock event device is registered. The event handler
    is still set to hrtimer_interrupt, which then crashes the machine due
    to highres mode not being active.
    
    See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700333
    
    There is no real good way to avoid that in the HPET code. The HPET
    code alrady has a mechanism to detect spurious interrupts when event
    handler == NULL for a similar reason.
    
    We can handle that in the clockevent/tick layer and replace the
    previous functional handler with a dummy handler like we do in
    tick_setup_new_device().
    
    The original clockevents code did this in clockevents_exchange_device(),
    but that got removed by commit 7c1e7689 (clockevents: prevent
    clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop) which forgot to fix
    it up in tick_shutdown(). Same issue with the broadcast device.
