[PATCH 4.8 022/140] parisc: Fix self-detected CPU stall warnings on Mako machines

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>

commit 92420bd0d01f040bbf754e1d090be49ca6a1c8d6 upstream.

The config option HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set automatically when compiling
for SMP. There is no need to clear the stable-clock flag via
clear_sched_clock_stable() when starting secondary CPUs, and even worse,
clearing it triggers wrong self-detected CPU stall warnings on 64bit Mako
machines.
