Subject: [ 03/10] i387: fix sense of sanity check
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 16:02:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120224000220.581161542@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120224000510.GA1005@kroah.com>

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

commit c38e23456278e967f094b08247ffc3711b1029b2 upstream.

The check for save_init_fpu() (introduced in commit 5b1cbac37798: "i387:
make irq_fpu_usable() tests more robust") was the wrong way around, but
I hadn't noticed, because my "tests" were bogus: the FPU exceptions are
disabled by default, so even doing a divide by zero never actually
triggers this code at all unless you do extra work to enable them.

So if anybody did enable them, they'd get one spurious warning.
