Replace the variable set function from "efivar_entry_set" to "efivar_entry_set_safe" in efibc panic notifier. In safe function parameter "block" will set to false and will call "efivar_entry_set_nonblocking"to set efi variables. efivar_entry_set_nonblocking is guaranteed to not block and is suitable for calling from crash/panic handlers. In UEFI android platform, when warm reset happens, with this change, efibc will not block the reboot process. Otherwise, set variable will call queue work and send to other offlined cpus then cause another panic, finally will cause reboot failure.

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 Restructured Text 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.
