The patch titled
pi-futex: missing pi_waiters plist initialization
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
pi-futex-missing-pi_waiters-plist-initialization.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: pi-futex: missing pi_waiters plist initialization
From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>
Initialize init task's pi_waiters plist. Otherwise cpu hotplug of cpu 0
might crash, since rt_mutex_getprio() accesses an uninitialized list head.
call chain which led to crash:
take_cpu_down
sched_idle_next
__setscheduler
rt_mutex_getprio
Using PLIST_HEAD_INIT in the INIT_TASK macro doesn't work unfortunately,
since the pi_waiters member is only conditionally present.
