[080/117] powerpc: Move checks in pseries_mach_cpu_die()

From: Greg KH
Date: Mon May 10 2010 - 19:31:32 EST


2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Vaidyanathan Srinivasan <svaidy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0212f2602a38e740d5a96aba4cebfc2ebc993ecf upstream.

Rearrange condition checks for better code readability and
prevention of possible race conditions when
preferred_offline_state can potentially change during the
execution of pseries_mach_cpu_die(). The patch will make
pseries_mach_cpu_die() put cpu in one of the consistent states
and not hit the run over BUG()
