4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c21b16392701543d61e366dca84e15fe7f0cf0cf upstream. Early alpha processors can't write a byte or short atomically - they read 8 bytes, modify the byte or two bytes in registers and write back 8 bytes. The modification of the variable "suspending" may race with modification of the variable "failed". Fix this by changing "suspending" to an int.
