[078/200] powerpc/pseries: Only call start-cpu when a CPU is stopped

[Greg KH]

2.6.34-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Michael Neuling <mikey@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit aef40e87d866355ffd279ab21021de733242d0d5 upstream.

Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is
stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like
start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started.  This was not
the case on POWER6 and earlier.

This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an
query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which
are stopped.

This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary
thread would make it to the second kernel.
