Paul Burton 4ad755c9e3 MIPS: CPS: Handle cores not powering down more gracefully
If we get into a state where a core that ought to power down isn't doing
so then the current result is that another CPU gets stuck inside
cps_cpu_die() waiting for CPU that ought to be powering down to do so.
The best case scenario is that we then trigger RCU stall messages or
lockup messages, but neither makes it particularly clear what's
happening.

Handle this more gracefully by introducing a timeout beyond which we
warn the user that the core didn't power down & stop waiting for it.
This at least allows the CPU running cps_cpu_die() to continue normally,
and hopefully presuming the CPU that powered back up is doing nothing
harmful the system will continue functioning as normal.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
