Looking at the current mainline code:
static void sti_secondary_init(unsigned int cpu)
{
trace_hardirqs_off();
Why is this necessary? If things aren't correctly setup in generic code,
please report a bug against the generic code rather than working around
the problem in platform specific code. This is the Linux kernel, not
some closed source project.
What bug are you seeing which required the addition of that?
