Subject: [PATCH 8/9] work_on_cpu: use for drivers/acpi/processor_throttling.c
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 10:40:25 +1030 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090318042218.32769DDF3D@ozlabs.org> (raw)
Impact: don't play with current's cpumask
It's generally a very bad idea to mug some process's cpumask: it could
legitimately and reasonably be changed by root, which could break us
(if done before our code) or them (if we restore the wrong value).
So we use work_on_cpu in two places instead of cpumask games.
