A 2.6.32.2 -> 2.6.32.3 regression. 2.6.32.3 included this prime suspect: : commit fa3f5a5c1c8e6a2cbc7e21755ea7c215f8cf0577 : Author: Thomas Gleixner <t...@linutronix.de> : Date: Thu Dec 10 15:35:10 2009 +0100 : : clockevents: Prevent clockevent_devices list corruption on cpu hotplug : : commit bb6eddf7676e1c1f3e637aa93c5224488d99036f upstream. : : which So we may well have the same regression in 2.6.33-rcX. Martin, can you please check whether the below revert fixes things up? Thanks.
