It appears to be worse than that. It introduces a regression. On boot
up on a Compaq Alpha XP1000 the system appears to freeze at the point of
mounting swap. It eventually resumes after almost three minutes and
continues to boot. A bisection returned this very commit as the first
bad commit. With a kernel without this commit the (truncated) bootup
log is:
[ 19.904286] ftdi_sio: v1.6.0:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver
[ 20.133778] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:01:00.1 to 64
[ 20.900379] ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023]
GUID[0000303c0009c6d0]
[ 23.142566] hda-intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling
mode: last cmd=0x000f0001
[ 24.162097] Adding 1999992k swap on /dev/sda2. Priority:-1 extents:1
across:1999992k
[ 24.495104] EXT3-fs (sda4): using internal journal
With the commit the log becomes:
[ 19.970692] ftdi_sio: v1.6.0:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver
[ 20.207020] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:01:00.1 to 64
[ 21.052723] ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023]
GUID[0000303c0009c6d0]
[ 23.215808] hda-intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling
mode: last cmd=0x000f0001
[ 189.828027] Adding 1999992k swap on /dev/sda2. Priority:-1 extents:1
across:1999992k
[ 190.162012] EXT3-fs (sda4): using internal journal
Otherwise the system seems to come up okay.
Cheers
Michael.
