Subject: [PATCH 5.8 365/633] powerpc/tau: Convert from timer to workqueue
From: Finn Thain <fthain@...egraphics.com.au>
[ Upstream commit b1c6a0a10bfaf36ec82fde6f621da72407fa60a1 ]
Since commit 19dbdcb8039cf ("smp: Warn on function calls from softirq
context") the Thermal Assist Unit driver causes a warning like the
following when CONFIG_SMP is enabled.

Don't call on_each_cpu() from a timer callback, call it from a worker
thread instead.
