In tick_nohz_cpu_down_callback() if the cpu is the one handling timekeeping, we must return something that stops the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers and then start notify CPU_DOWN_FAILED on the already called notifier call backs. However traditional errno values are not handled by the notifier unless these are encapsulated using errno_to_notifier(). Hence the current -EINVAL is misinterpreted and converted to junk after notifier_to_errno(), leaving the notifier subsystem to random behaviour such as eventually allowing the cpu to go down. Fix this by using the standard NOTIFY_BAD instead. Signed-off-by: Li Zhong <zhong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Srivatsa S.
