Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/powernv: Fix NVRAM sleep in invalid context when crashing

From: Nicholas Piggin <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 15 May 2018 01:59:47 +1000

Similarly to opal_event_shutdown, opal_nvram_write can be called in
the crash path with irqs disabled. Special case the delay to avoid
sleeping in invalid context.

Cc: [email-masked] # v3.2
Fixes: 3b8070335f ("powerpc/powernv: Fix OPAL NVRAM driver OPAL_BUSY loops")
