[PATCH] powerpc/pseries: Fix cpu_hotplug_lock acquisition in resize_hpt

[Gautham R. Shenoy]

From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

During a memory hotplug operations involving resizing of the HPT, we
invoke a stop_machine() to perform the resizing. In this code path, we
end up recursively taking the cpu_hotplug_lock, first in
memory_hotplug_begin() and then subsequently in stop_machine(). This
causes the system to hang. With lockdep enabled we get the following
error message before the hang.

  swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:
  (____ptrval____) (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: stop_machine+0x2c/0x60

  but task is already holding lock:
  (____ptrval____) (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: mem_hotplug_begin+0x20/0x50

  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

         CPU0
         ----
    lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
    lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);

   *** DEADLOCK ***

Fix this issue by
  1) Requiring all the calls to pseries_lpar_resize_hpt() be made
     with cpu_hotplug_lock held.

  2) In pseries_lpar_resize_hpt() invoke stop_machine_cpuslocked()
     as a consequence of 1)

  3) To satisfy 1), in hpt_order_set(), call mmu_hash_ops.resize_hpt()
     with cpu_hotplug_lock held.
