powerpc/64s: return more carefully from sreset NMI System Reset, being an NMI, must return more carefully than other interrupts. It has traditionally returned via the nromal return from exception path, but that has a number of problems. - r13 does not get restored if returning to kernel. This is for interrupts which may cause a context switch, which sreset will never do. Interrupting OPAL (which uses a different r13) is one place where this causes breakage. - It may cause several other problems returning to kernel with preempt or TIF_EMULATE_STACK_STORE if it hits at the wrong time. It's safer just to have a simple restore and return, like machine check which is the other NMI. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
