Hi Linus, please pull from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6.git release This fixes three regressions, two small ones from within 2.6.22, and a boot hang due to a race condition originating in 2.6.20. It will update the files shown below. thanks! -Len ps. individual patches are available on linux-acpi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and a consolidated plain patch is available here: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.22/acpi-release-20070126-2.6.22-rc5.diff.gz drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c | 10 ++++++---- drivers/acpi/thermal.c | 15 +++++++++++---- drivers/acpi/utilities/utobject.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) through these commits: Myron Stowe (1): ACPICA: fix error path in new external package objects as method arguments Thomas Renninger (1): ACPI: gracefully print null trip-point device Venkatesh Pallipadi (1): ACPI: fix 2.6.20 SMP boot regression with this log: commit 629cf6d74beca87d57cea3e38edf7522c397d41e Merge: 75154f4... d5a3d32...

This is required as the 2.6.20 change in git commit d331e739f5ad2aaa9... "Fix interrupt race in idle callback" expects the idle handler to enable interrupt before returning. There was a case in acpi idle routine, in which interrupt was not being enabled before return, which caused the system to hang at bootup, while enabling C-states on an SMP system. The signature of the hang was that "processor.nocst" was required to enable boot.

This should instead be acpi_ut_remove_reference(package_desc) in order to remove the reference acquired from acpi_ut_create_internal_object() [see the routine acpi_ut_create_buffer_object() as an example of proper functionality].
