spapr: Set LPCR to current AIL mode when starting a new CPU
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
TCG does not keep track of AIL mode in a central place, it's based on
the current LPCR[AIL] bits. Synchronize the new CPU's LPCR to the
current LPCR in rtas_start_cpu(), similarly to the way the ILE bit is
synchronized.

Open-code the ILE setting as well now that the caller's LPCR is
available directly, there is no need for the indirection.

Without this, under both TCG and KVM, adding a POWER8/9/10 class CPU
with a new core ID after a modern Linux has booted results in the new
CPU's LPCR missing the LPCR[AIL]=0b11 setting that the other CPUs have.
This can cause crashes and unexpected behaviour.
