  powerpc/watchdog: add locking around init/exit functions (2017-08-09 23:45:33 +1000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
powerpc fixes for 4.13 #6

All fixes for code that went in this cycle.

 - A revert of an optimisation to the syscall exit path, which could lead to an
   oops on either older machines or machines with > 1T of memory.
 - Disable some deep idle states if the firmware configuration for them fails.
 - Re-enable HARD/SOFT lockup detectors in defconfigs after a Kconfig change.
 - Six fairly small patches fixing bugs in our new watchdog code.

Thanks to:
  Gautham R. Shenoy, Nicholas Piggin.
