3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Shawn Guo <[email protected]> commit 98bd8b96b26db3399a48202318dca4aaa2515355 upstream. The CPU will endlessly spin at the end of machine_halt and machine_restart calls. However, this will lead to a soft lockup warning after about 20 seconds, if CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR is enabled, as system timer is still alive. Disable interrupt before going to spin endlessly, so that the lockup warning will never be seen.
