So the idea is to spin long enough that the
wait_for_completion(&cpu_running, 1000ms) times out? Maybe there
should be a wfi() in here as well so we're not just burning white hot.
Have you verified that if we get here, the CPU will also get taken
back down after the timeout? I wonder if __cpu_up() also needs a call
to stop the CPU, in the case where that wait_for_completion_timeout()
times out.
It also might be more intuitive to reorganize this such that the death
loop happens in smp_callin(), as check_unaligned_access_emulated() is
not a function you'd expect might sometimes never return.
