From: "Suresh E. Warrier" <warrier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The kvmppc_vcore_blocked() code does not check for the wait condition after putting the process on the wait queue. This means that it is possible for an external interrupt to become pending, but the vcpu to remain asleep until the next decrementer interrupt. The fix is to make one last check for pending exceptions and ceded state before calling schedule().
