3.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jan Stancek <jstancek@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d52356e7f48e400ca258c6763a232a92fa82ff68 upstream.
Space allocated for paca is based off nr_cpu_ids,
but pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() iterates paca with
cpu_nr_cores()*threads_per_core, which is using NR_CPUS.
This causes pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() to write over memory,
which is outside of paca array and may later lead to various panics.
Fixes: 7cba160ad789 (powernv/cpuidle: Redesign idle states management)
