Subject: [PATCH 5.11 124/152] powerpc/pseries/mobility: use struct for shared state

From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit e834df6cfc71d8e5ce2c27a0184145ea125c3f0f ]

The atomic_t counter is the only shared state for the join/suspend
sequence so far, but that will change. Contain it in a
struct (pseries_suspend_info), and document its intended use. No
functional change.
