Subject: [PATCH 2/3] percpu: fix percpu accessors to potentially !cpu_possible() cpus: pnpbios
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 21:10:25 +1030 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200811212110.25549.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
Impact: CPU iterator bugfixes
Percpu areas are only allocated for possible cpus. In general, you
shouldn't access random cpu's percpu areas.
