Is that something we need to care about? I observed the hang trying to kexec a crash kernel and I did not see the warning that smp_crash_stop_failed(). I'm not exactly sure why flush_icache_range() hung (but it did), but I think that __flush_icache_range() makes more sense here anyway. > > Will > > _______________________________________________ > linux-arm-kernel mailing list > linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org > http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel >
