Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/traps: restore recoverability of machine_check interrupts
Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2018 09:16:22 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f79824d5da910441ede885fa32a25083c4cc9359.1539422122.git.christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> (raw)

commit b96672dd840f ("powerpc: Machine check interrupt is a non-
maskable interrupt") added a call to nmi_enter() at the beginning of
machine check restart exception handler. Due to that, in_interrupt()
always returns true regardless of the state before entering the
exception, and die() panics even when the system was not already in
interrupt.

This patch calls nmi_exit() before calling die() in order to restore
the interrupt state we had before calling nmi_enter()

Fixes: b96672dd840f ("powerpc: Machine check interrupt is a non-maskable interrupt")
