4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: James Hogan <jhogan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c04de7b1ad645b61c141df8ca903ba0cc03a57f7 upstream. Since commit 68923cdc2eb3 ("MIPS: CM: Add cluster & block args to mips_cm_lock_other()"), mips_smp_send_ipi_mask() has used mips_cm_lock_other_cpu() with each CPU number, rather than mips_cm_lock_other() with the first VPE in each core. Prior to r6, multicore multithreaded systems such as dual-core dual-thread interAptivs with CPU Idle enabled (e.g. MIPS Creator Ci40) results in mips_cm_lock_other() repeatedly hitting WARN_ON(vp != 0). There doesn't appear to be anything fundamentally wrong about passing a non-zero VP/VPE number, even if it is a core's region that is locked into the other region before r6, so remove that particular WARN_ON().
