Re: current hg unstable tree: arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o: In function `safe_halt': undefined reference to `rcu_needs_cpu'

[Harry Butterworth <harry@hebutterworth.freeserve.co.uk>]

There's a patch in patches/linux-2.6.16.13 called rcu_needs_cpu.patch
which provides rcu_needs_cpu for the 2.6.16.13 kernel which is the one I
tested against when I submitted the rcu_needs_cpu_patch.

I'm not sure how you are getting the 2.6.16.20 kernel.  If this is a
standard part of the xen-unstable build that is supposed to work then
let me know how to invoke it and I will fix up the problem.

But maybe you have pulled 2.6.16.20 manually, applied the 2.6.16.13
patches manually and then done an hg pull and got the new patch in the
patches directory but failed to apply it to your kernel?
