5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 5d08633e5f6564b60f1cbe09af3af40a74d66431 ]
The ibm,get-system-parameter RTAS function may return -2 or 990x,
which indicate that the caller should try again.
lparcfg's parse_system_parameter_string() ignores this, making it
possible to intermittently report incorrect SPLPAR characteristics.
Move the RTAS call into a coventional rtas_busy_delay()-based loop.
