Subject: [GIT PULL urgent] Fixes for a pair of RCU regressions
Date: Thu, 16 May 2013 08:47:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130516154740.GA23704@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Hello, Ingo,
This series contains a couple of fixes for RCU regressions:
1. A boneheaded boolean-logic bug that resulted in excessive
delays on boot, hibernation and suspend that was reported
by Borislav Petkov, Bjørn Mork, and Joerg Roedel. The
fix inserts a single "!".
2. A fix for a boot-time splat due to allocating from bootmem
too late in boot, fix courtesy of Sasha Levin with additional
help from Yinghai Lu.
These changes are available in the git repository at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git rcu/urgent

Thanx, Paul
