m68k needs some changes in arch/m68k/kernel/entry.S, cfr. this check
in arch/m68k/kernel/ints.c:
/* assembly irq entry code relies on this... */
if (HARDIRQ_MASK != 0x00ff0000) {
extern void hardirq_mask_is_broken(void);
hardirq_mask_is_broken();
}
Haven't looked into the details yet...
Whee. Did not notice that one. Though I can't find anything
interesting in the low level entry code... Looks like some more
histerical left overs.
Thanks,
