The patch titled s390: fix ipd handling has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is s390-fix-ipd-handling.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx> As pointed out by Paulo Marques <pmarques@xxxxxxxxxxxx> MAX_IPD_TIME is by a factor of ten too small. Since this means that we allow ten times more IPDs in the intended time frame this could result in a cpu check stop of a physical cpu.
