The patch titled intel_cacheinfo: Call cache_add_dev from cache_sysfs_init explicitly has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is intel_cacheinfo-call-cache_add_dev-from-cache_sysfs_init.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: intel_cacheinfo: Call cache_add_dev from cache_sysfs_init explicitly From: Satyam Sharma <satyam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Call cache_add_dev() from cache_sysfs_init() explicitly, instead of referencing the CPU notifier callback directly from generic startup code. Looks cleaner (to me at least) this way, and also makes it possible to use other tricks to replace __cpuinit{data} annotations, as recently discussed on this list.
