Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 3/5] video: hyperv_fb: Avoid taking busy spinlock on panic path

From: "Guilherme G. Piccoli" <gpiccoli@...lia.com>

[ Upstream commit 1d044ca035dc22df0d3b39e56f2881071d9118bd ]

The Hyper-V framebuffer code registers a panic notifier in order
to try updating its fbdev if the kernel crashed. The notifier
callback is straightforward, but it calls the vmbus_sendpacket()
routine eventually, and such function takes a spinlock for the
ring buffer operations.

Panic path runs in atomic context, with local interrupts and
preemption disabled, and all secondary CPUs shutdown. That said,
taking a spinlock might cause a lockup if a secondary CPU was
disabled with such lock taken. Fix it here by checking if the
ring buffer spinlock is busy on Hyper-V framebuffer panic notifier;
if so, bail-out avoiding the potential lockup scenario.
