[PATCH 0/1] [Karmic, Lucid] SRU: Stop spurious softlockup messages due to overflow

[Colin King]

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551068

SRU justification:

Impact: i5 i7 cpus generate spurious softlock messages when coming
out of S3 because of a math overflow error in the softlock driver.

Fix: See attached patch that handles the overflow correctly, this is
backported from upstream.

Testcase: On i5 and i7 cpus suspend and then resume. Without the patch
there are several softlock messages with a timeout of 0 seconds. With
the patch the softlock messages do not occur.
