The patch titled dynticks: fix resume bug has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is updated-dynticks-core-code-fix-resume-bug.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: dynticks: fix resume bug From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> Found a hotplug-CPU removal related bug in the dynticks code: the sched tick hrtimer needs to be deactivated, otherwise it will be migrated to another CPU's hrtimers queue and might confuse the high-res timers code there. The bug was found via lockdep - the bug itself didnt cause an actual crash or other regression - nevertheless we want to fix it. The lockdep message was: ===================================== [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ] ------------------------------------- swapper/0 is trying to release lock (cpu1_base->lock) at: [<ffffffff8024e9e9>] hrtimer_sched_tick+0x5b/0xac but there are no more locks to release! other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by swapper/0: #0: (cpu0_base->lock){+...}, at:
