The patch titled ia64: fix unlock ordering in smp_callin has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ia64-fix-unlock-ordering-in-smp_callin.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ia64: fix unlock ordering in smp_callin From: "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@xxxxxx> One should normally unlock in the reverse order of the lock calls, and in this case there certainly is no reason not to. To better see the results (with locks included), here's the complete section of corrected code: lock_ipi_calllock(); spin_lock(&vector_lock); /* Setup the per cpu irq handling data structures */ __setup_vector_irq(cpuid); cpu_set(cpuid, cpu_online_map); per_cpu(cpu_state, cpuid) = CPU_ONLINE; spin_unlock(&vector_lock); unlock_ipi_calllock(); Signed-off-by: Alan D.
