Subject: [ 15/65] ARM: 7480/1: only call smp_send_stop() on SMP

From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@...hile0.org>

commit c5dff4ffd327088d85035bec535b7d0c9ea03151 upstream.

On reboot or poweroff (machine_shutdown()) a call to smp_send_stop() is
made (to stop the others CPU's) when CONFIG_SMP=y.

arch/arm/kernel/process.c:

void machine_shutdown(void)
{
 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
       smp_send_stop();
 #endif
}

smp_send_stop() calls the function pointer smp_cross_call(), which is set
on the smp_init_cpus() function for OMAP processors.

arch/arm/mach-omap2/omap-smp.c:

void __init smp_init_cpus(void)
{
...
	set_smp_cross_call(gic_raise_softirq);
...
}

But the ARM setup_arch() function only calls smp_init_cpus()
if CONFIG_SMP=y && is_smp().

arm/kernel/setup.c:

void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p)
{
...
 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
	if (is_smp())
		smp_init_cpus();
 #endif
...
}

Newer OMAP CPU's are SMP machines so omap2plus_defconfig sets
CONFIG_SMP=y. Unfortunately on an OMAP UP machine is_smp()
returns false and smp_init_cpus() is never called and the
smp_cross_call() function remains NULL.

If the machine is rebooted or powered off, smp_send_stop() will
be called (since CONFIG_SMP=y) leading to the following error:

Add a check so smp_cross_call() is only called when there is more than one CPU on-line.
