William A. Kennington III 71e24d7731 powerpc/opal: Fix EBUSY bug in acquiring tokens
The current code checks the completion map to look for the first token
that is complete. In some cases, a completion can come in but the
token can still be on lease to the caller processing the completion.
If this completed but unreleased token is the first token found in the
bitmap by another tasks trying to acquire a token, then the
__test_and_set_bit call will fail since the token will still be on
lease. The acquisition will then fail with an EBUSY.

This patch reorganizes the acquisition code to look at the
opal_async_token_map for an unleased token. If the token has no lease
it must have no outstanding completions so we should never see an
EBUSY, unless we have leased out too many tokens. Since
opal_async_get_token_inrerruptible is protected by a semaphore, we
will practically never see EBUSY anymore.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
