This will trickle down to __register_one_node() which walks all present CPUs, calling register_cpu_under_node() on each. register_cpu_under_node() will call get_cpu_device(cpu) for each and will return NULL until the CPU is registered using register_cpu(), which will now happen _after_ node_dev_init(). So, at this point, CPUs won't get registered, and initially one might think that's a problem. However, register_cpu() will itself call register_cpu_under_node(), where get_cpu_device() will return the now populated entry, and the sysfs links will be created. So, I think what you've spotted is a potential chunk of code that isn't necessary when using GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES after this change! -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up.
