Because apei_resources_fini() happens under the same condition check and if arch_apei_filter_addr was false, it should not become true, all of a sudden. Or? Or does that function ptr get set in the meantime on your machine? I.e., this hackery: #define set_apei_filter() (arch_apei_filter_addr = pci_mmcfg_for_each_region) being called in pci_mmcfg_early_init()... ? Hmmm. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
