Subject: [powerpc/nmi: RFC 1/2] Merge IPI and DEFAULT priorities
Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2016 20:50:02 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161212095003.1885-2-bsingharora@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161212095003.1885-1-bsingharora@gmail.com>

We merge IPI and DEFAULT priorities to the same
value. The idea is to keep interrupts enabled
even in lazy soft-disabled mode. Instead of storing
the IPI and irq separately, we keep the levels
same so that we deal with only one of them
