This series applied cleanly without any rejects but i still got the spontaneous reboot during bootup on UP 32-bit x86. So either i'm still missing some essential patch, or this tree somehow triggers the problem more likely than in -mm. I've bisected it down to: percpu1-percpu-move-arch-xx-per-cpu-xx-definitions-into-linux-percpu-h.patch that patch looks harmless though. Anyway, we can certainly revisit this issue after you get back on Dec 13th. Ingo
