[ Upstream commit edb1942542bc538707cea221e9c7923a6270465f ]
LoongArch re-enables interrupts on its idle routine and performs a
TIF_NEED_RESCHED check afterwards before putting the CPU to sleep.
The IRQs firing between the check and the idle instruction may set the
TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag. In order to deal with such a race, IRQs
interrupting __arch_cpu_idle() rollback their return address to the
beginning of __arch_cpu_idle() so that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is checked
again before going back to sleep.
However idle IRQs can also queue timers that may require a tick
reprogramming through a new generic idle loop iteration but those timers
would go unnoticed here because __arch_cpu_idle() only checks
TIF_NEED_RESCHED. It doesn't check for pending timers.
Fix this with fast-forwarding idle IRQs return address to the end of the
idle routine instead of the beginning, so that the generic idle loop can
handle both TIF_NEED_RESCHED and pending timers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
