[PATCH 2/2] powernv/kdump: Fix cases where the kdump kernel can get HMI's

[Balbir Singh]

Certain HMI's such as malfunction error propagate through
all threads/core on the system. If a thread was offline
prior to us crashing the system and jumping to the kdump
kernel, bad things happen when it wakes up due to an HMI
in the kdump kernel.

There are several possible ways to solve this problem

1. Put the offline cores in a state such that they are
not woken up for machine check and HMI errors. This
does not work, since we might need to wake up offline
threads to handle TB errors
2. Ignore HMI errors, setup HMEER to mask HMI errors,
but this still leads the window open for any MCEs
and masking them for the duration of the dump might
be a concern
3. Wake up offline CPUs, as in send them to
crash_ipi_callback (not wake them up as in mark them
online as seen by the hotplug). kexec does a
wake_online_cpus() call, this patch does something
similar, but instead sends an IPI and forces them to
crash_ipi_callback()

This patch takes approach #3.

Care is taken to enable this only for powenv platforms
via crash_wake_offline (a global value set at setup
time). The crash code sends out IPI's to all CPU's
which then move to crash_ipi_callback and kexec_smp_wait().

Changelog
 - Michael Ellerman recommended refactoring
   the code so as to not modify major portions of the
   NMI handling/IPI code.
