Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 15/17] Prevent uninitialized string in RCU stall info
Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:35:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1340379312-6684-15-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1340379312-6684-1-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Carsten Emde <C.Emde@osadl.org>

An uninitialized string may be displayed at the end of the rcu_preempt
detected stall info such as

0: (1 GPs behind) idle=075/140000000000000/0 =8?^D=8?^D
                                             ^^^^^^^^^^
if CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ is not defined.

This trivial patch clears the string in this case.
