Subject: [PATCH 1/3] percpu: fix percpu accessors to potentially !cpu_possible() cpus: m32r
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 21:09:01 +1030	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200811212109.01479.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)

Impact: CPU iterator bugfixes

Percpu areas are only allocated for possible cpus.  In general, you
shouldn't access random cpu's percpu areas.
