Subject: [PATCH] percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t -fix
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2014 23:06:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140908220654.GO17501@suse.de> (raw)
A commit in linux-next was causing boot to fail and bisection identified
the patch "percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_".
The commit ID is worthless as it's a linux-next commit. One of the changes
in that patch looks very suspicious. Reverting the full patch fixes boot
as does this fixlet.
