Subject: Please pull sysdev attribute class hot fix
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:38:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080729123801.GJ30344@one.firstfloor.org> (raw)



Hi Linus,

Please pull the following fix for a oops hitting some distributions
at boot. That was a fallout of the sysdev attribute class changes.
The scheduler attributes were declare wrong (as a normal attribute
instead of a class attribute) and this latent bug leads to crashes now.

Sending directly because lots of people seem to hit that.

BTW the distributions shouldn't use that at all at boot. It's really
a setting for some specialized server setups. SUSE event 
sets it to a value (2) that currently doesn't exist. But we have to fix 
it of course.

Thanks.
