5.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx> commit 1b5fc84aba170bdfe3533396ca9662ceea1609b7 upstream. The NMI IPI timeout logic is broken, if __smp_send_nmi_ipi() times out on the first condition, delay_us will be zero which will send it into the second spin loop with no timeout so it will spin forever.
