Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86: Switch critical exceptions and NMI to irqstack
Date: Thu, 25 Dec 2008 22:58:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1230238726-17506-4-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1230238726-17506-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>

With the special exception stacks gone, the irqstack is a much safer place
than the regular task stacks.
