Subject: [PATCH] acpi_register_irq()
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2003 19:02:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105795124411277@msgid-missing> (raw)
acpi_madt is marked as __initdata, so an attempt to use
acpi_register_irq() after we discarded init sections would cause us to
dereference a random location. Everywhere else uses has_8259 anyway.

Do you think I want to have an academic debate on this subject?" -- Robert Fisk
