[PATCH 1/4] sparc64: Set cpu state to offline when stopped

[PATCH 1/4] sparc64: Set cpu state to offline when stopped

[Vijay Kumar]

CPU needs to be marked offline before stopping it. When not marked
offline, the xcall receives HV_EWOULDBLOCK and so assumes that not all
CPUs received the message, and retries. After 10000 retries, it finally
fails with fatal mondo timeout.

[PATCH 2/4] sparc64: Migrate hvcons irq to panicked cpu

[Vijay Kumar]

On panic, all other CPUs are stopped except the one which had
hit panic. To keep console alive, we need to migrate hvcons irq
to panicked CPU.

[Vijay Kumar]

Now we can also jump to boot prom from sunhv console by sending
break twice on console for both running and panicked kernel
cases.
