Subject: [BUG][next-20170619][347de24] PowerPC boot fails with Oops

Hi,

commit: 347de24 (powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup
watchdog)

linux-next fails to boot on PowerPC Bare-metal box.

Test: boot
Machine type: Power 8 Bare-metal
Kernel: 4.12.0-rc5-next-20170619
gcc: version 4.8.5


In file arch/powerpc/kernel/watchdog.c

void soft_nmi_interrupt(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
    unsigned long flags;
    int cpu = raw_smp_processor_id();
    u64 tb;

    if (!cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, &wd_cpus_enabled))
        return;

>>> nmi_enter();
    tb = get_tb();

    powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdog
    
    Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based
    hardlockup detector.
    
    The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going
through
    perf.  Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that
would
    prevent the perf detector from working in those regions.
