Use: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/$MSGID if anything. Then I can find it in my local mbox without having to resort to touching a mouse and shitty browser software. (also patchwork is absolute crap for reading email threads) Anyway, I found it -- I think, I refused to click the link.

Without holding the cpu hotplug lock, the online mask is gibberish. > + > if ((unsigned)node >= nr_node_ids) { > printk(KERN_WARNING > "cpumask_of_node(%d): (unsigned)node >= nr_node_ids(%u)\n", I still think this makes absolutely no sense what so ever.
