That's a known issue and has been reported over and over. That's due to making the acpi locks raw. Now I can't find any bug report which tells me WHY the heck we made those locks raw in the first place. All I can remember is that the trace back came deep from the idle code. That's why I asked to revert the acpi-make-gbl-hardware-lock-raw.patch acpi-make-ec-lock-raw-as-well.patch patches, so we can get that information. It might be a non issue on 3.2 and only a 3.0 problem, but as I can't find anything I'm going to drop those patches from the next 3.2 release and wait for proper bugreports coming again :) Thanks, tglx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rt-users" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
