Sourabh Jain 6efbd5ddb6 kexec/crash: no crash update when kexec in progress 
The following errors are observed when kexec is done with SMT=off on
powerpc.

[  358.458385] Removing IBM Power 842 compression device
[  374.795734] kexec_core: Starting new kernel
[  374.795748] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.
[  374.875695] crash hp: kexec_trylock() failed, elfcorehdr may be inaccurate
[  374.935833] kexec: Waking offline cpu 2.
[  375.015664] crash hp: kexec_trylock() failed, elfcorehdr may be inaccurate
snip..
[  375.515823] kexec: Waking offline cpu 6.
[  375.635667] crash hp: kexec_trylock() failed, elfcorehdr may be inaccurate
[  375.695836] kexec: Waking offline cpu 7.

To avoid kexec kernel boot failure on PowerPC, all the present CPUs that
are offline are brought online during kexec.  For more information, refer
to commit e8e5c2155b ("powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across
kexec").  Bringing the CPUs online triggers the crash hotplug handler,
crash_handle_hotplug_event(), to update the kdump image.  Since the system
is on the kexec kernel boot path and the kexec lock is held, the
crash_handle_hotplug_event() function fails to acquire the same lock to
update the kdump image, resulting in the error messages mentioned above.

To fix this, return from crash_handle_hotplug_event() without printing the
error message if kexec is in progress.

The same applies to the crash_check_hotplug_support() function.  Return 0
if kexec is in progress because kernel is not in a position to update the
kdump image.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
