This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled clocksource: Exynos_mct: Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: clocksource-exynos_mct-use-irq_force_affinity-in-cpu-bringup.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 30ccf03b4a6a2102a2219058bdc6d779dc637dd7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:36:45 +0000 Subject: clocksource: Exynos_mct: Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 30ccf03b4a6a2102a2219058bdc6d779dc637dd7 upstream. The starting cpu is not yet in the online mask so irq_set_affinity() fails which results in per cpu timers for this cpu ending up on some other online cpu, ususally cpu 0. Use irq_force_affinity() which disables the online mask check and makes things work.
