Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.2 9/9] parisc: Replace regular spinlock with spin_trylock on panic path

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

[ Upstream commit 829632dae8321787525ee37dc4828bbe6edafdae ]

The panic notifiers' callbacks execute in an atomic context, with
interrupts/preemption disabled, and all CPUs not running the panic
function are off, so it's very dangerous to wait on a regular
spinlock, there's a risk of deadlock.

Refactor the panic notifier of parisc/power driver to make use
of spin_trylock - for that, we've added a second version of the
soft-power function. Also, some comments were reorganized and
trailing white spaces, useless header inclusion and blank lines
were removed.
