From: Justin Chen justinpopo6@gmail.com

commit 06a3f0c9f2725f5d7c63c4203839373c9bd00c28 upstream.

Commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs") fixes an issue where disable_irq did not actually disable the irq. The bug caused our IPIs to not be disabled, which actually is the correct behavior.

With the addition of commit a3e6c1eff548 ("MIPS: IRQ: Fix disable_irq on CPU IRQs"), the IPIs were getting disabled going into suspend, thus schedule_ipi() was not being called. This caused deadlocks where schedulable task were not being scheduled and other cpus were waiting for them to do something.

Add the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag so an irq_disable will not be called on the IPIs during suspend.
