Ooh, cute, so you can actually hotplug cpu 0.. no wonder that didn't get exposed on x86. Still, the only time cpu_active_mask should not be equal to cpu_online_mask is when we're in the middle of a hotplug, we clear active early and set it late, but its all done under the hotplug mutex, so we can at most have 1 cpu differences with online mask. Unless of course, I messed up, which appears to be rather likely given these problems ;-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
