Subject: [PATCH 1/8] stop_machine: cpu_stopper_thread() must check done != NULL
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2015 20:33:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151115193311.GA8242@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20151115193254.GA8225@redhat.com>

stop_one_cpu_nowait(fn) will crash the kernel if the callback returns
nonzero, work->done == NULL in this case.

This needs more cleanups, cpu_stop_signal_done() is called right after
we check done != NULL and it does the same check.
