Subject: [PATCH] x86,apic: Checking kernel option before detect_init_APIC()
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2009 07:25:32 +0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b9df5fa10903271825g62b95e62p6e7006f0594e2c4b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Impact: cleanup
Before calling detect_init_APIC(), check whether apic is disabled from
kernel option or not.
Thanks.
