Since 4.10 was replaced with 4.13 kernel version for linux-hwe, would it
make sense to backport this patch to 4.13 (Artful) ? Could you
(jsalisbury) please add Artful as a target series to track?

Title:
powerpc/powernv: Flush console before platform error reboot
Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
In Progress
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in linux source package in Zesty:
In Progress
Bug description:
== SRU Justification ==
IBM unrecovered MCE and HMI errors are sent through a special restart OPAL
call to log the platform error. The downside is that they don't go
through normal Linux crash paths, so they don't give much information
to the Linux console.
IBM is requesting to have the commit b746e3e01e70d23ef53dcde1203ab78a1b7ac514
in the Zesty kernel.
Commit b746e3e01e70d2 is in mainline as of 4.14-rc1.
Breno Leitao from IBM did a backport of this commit.
== Fix ==
commit b746e3e01e70d23ef53dcde1203ab78a1b7ac514

powerpc/powernv: Flush console before platform error reboot
== Regression Potential ==
This patch is specific to powerpc, and it has been backported, reviewed and
tested by IBM.
== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug
reporter.
