[PATCH] kexec: Fix reboot race during device_shutdown()

From: Joel Fernandes (Google)
Date: Thu Sep 28 2023 - 22:12:22 EST


During kexec reboot, it is possible for a race to occur between
device_shutdown() and userspace. This causes accesses to GPU after pm_runtime
suspend has already happened. Fix this by calling freeze_processes() before
device_shutdown().

Such freezing is already being done if kernel supports KEXEC_JUMP and
kexec_image->preserve_context is true. However, doing it if either of these are
not true prevents crashes/races.

This fixes the following crash during kexec reboot on an ARM64 device
with adreno GPU:
