3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Daney <david.daney@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 0c81157b46c533139d6be721d41617020c59a2c3 upstream. commit 92d11594f6 (MIPS: Remove irqflags.h dependency from bitops.h) factored some of the bitops code out into a separate file (arch/mips/lib/bitops.c). Unfortunately the logic converting a bit mask into a boolean result was lost in some of the functions. We had: int res; unsigned long shifted_result_bit; . . . res = shifted_result_bit; return res; Which truncates off the high 32 bits (thus yielding an incorrect value) on 64-bit systems. The manifestation of this is that a non-SMP 64-bit kernel will not boot as the bitmap operations in bootmem.c are all screwed up.
