Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 04/13] powerpc: improve handling of unrecoverable system reset

From: Sasha Levin <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2021 06:58:54 -0500

From: Nicholas Piggin <[email-masked]>

[ Upstream commit 11cb0a25f71818ca7ab4856548ecfd83c169aa4d ]

If an unrecoverable system reset hits in process context, the system
does not have to panic. Similar to machine check, call nmi_exit()
before die().
