commit a8b48a4dccea77e29462e59f1dbf0d5aa1ff167c upstream.
This fixes a bug where the trap number that is returned by __kvmppc_vcore_entry gets corrupted. The effect of the corruption is that IPIs get ignored on POWER9 systems when the IPI is sent via a doorbell interrupt to a CPU which is executing in a KVM guest. The effect of the IPI being ignored is often that another CPU locks up inside smp_call_function_many() (and if that CPU is holding a spinlock, other CPUs then lock up inside raw_spin_lock()).
The trap number is currently held in register r12 for most of the assembly-language part of the guest exit path. In that path, we call kvmppc_subcore_exit_guest(), which is a C function, without restoring r12 afterwards. Depending on the kernel config and the compiler, it may modify r12 or it may not, so some config/compiler combinations see the bug and others don't.
To fix this, we arrange for the trap number to be stored on the stack from the point where kvmhv_commence_exit is called until the end of the function, then the trap number is loaded and returned in r12 as before.

Now applied, thanks.
