The generic MIPS implementations of halting, powering down or restarting the system all hang using a busy loop as a last resort. We have many platforms which avoid this loop by implementing their own, many using some variation upon executing a wait instruction to lower CPU power usage if we reach this point. In order to prepare for cleaning up these various custom implementations of the same thing, this patch makes the generic machine_halt(), machine_power_off() & machine_restart() functions each make use of the wait instruction to lower CPU power usage in cases where we know that the wait instruction is available. If wait isn't known to be supported then we fall back to calling cpu_wait(), and if we don't have a cpu_wait() callback then we effectively continue using a busy loop. In effect the new machine_hang() function provides a superset of the functionality that the various platforms currently provide differing subsets of.

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.
