The patch titled hrtimers: fix reprogramming SMP race has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was hrtimers-fix-reprogramming-smp-race.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: hrtimers: fix reprogramming SMP race From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> hrtimer_start() incorrectly set the 'reprogram' flag to enqueue_hrtimer(), which should only be 1 if the hrtimer is queued to the current CPU. Doing otherwise could result in a reprogramming of the current CPU's clockevents device, with a timer that is not queued to it - resulting in a bogus next expiry value.
