Maybe this is just too complicated to grasp - in which case just test
tonight's linux-next on *all* your boards irrespective of the CPU, and
let me know if there's a regression due to this patch, giving me full
details of your CPUs (CPU ID numbers, number of CPUs, etc.) If no one
reports a regression that doesn't get fixed, I'll merge it during the
next merge window.
(I can't believe that this is proving to be soo complicated...)
