The patch titled Fix SMP poweroff hangs has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fix-smp-poweroff-hangs.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Fix SMP poweroff hangs From: Mark Lord <lkml@xxxxxx> We need to disable all CPUs other than the boot CPU (usually 0) before attempting to power-off modern SMP machines. This fixes the hang-on-poweroff issue on my MythTV SMP box, and also on Thomas Gleixner's new toybox.
