[PATCH/RFC 05/17] MIPS: BMIPS: Mask off timer IRQs when hot-unplugging a CPU

[Kevin Cernekee <cernekee-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

From: Jon Fraser <jfraser-dY08KVG/lbpWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>

CPU interrupts need to be disabled on a cpu being taken down.
When a cpu is hot-plugged out of the system the following sequence occurs.

On the CPU where the hotplug sequence was initiated:
    cpu_down
        _cpu_down {
            __cpu_notify(CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
            __stop_machine(take_cpu_down
                wait for cpu to run disable code.
            __cpu_die
        }

On the CPU  being disabled:
    take_cpu_down
        __cpu_disable {
            mp_ops->cpu_disable
                bmips_cpu_disable
                    clear_c0_status(IE_IRQ5) (added)
            cpu_notify(CPU_DYING...
        }

Before the cpu_notifier is called with CPU_DYING, all interrupts on the
dying cpu must be disabled.  This guarantees that before tick_notify is
called with the CPU_DYING event and sets the clock device pointer to
NULL, there can not be any more clock interrupts.

When this wasn't done, an unfortunately-timed timer interrupt sometimes
caused hangs immediately prior to system suspend:

    Debug PM is not enabled. To enable partial suspend, rebuild kernel with CONFIG_PM_DEBUG
    Pass 1 out of 1,PM: Syncing filesystems ... mode=none, tp1=done.
    1, flags=5, cycle_tp=, sleep=
    Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done.
    Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done.
    PM: suspend of devices complete after 54.199 msecs
    PM: late suspend of devices complete after 0.172 msecs
    Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
