           Summary: Unable to boot after "ACPI: Don't let acpi_pad
                    needlessly mark TSC unstable"
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.35-rc[1,2]
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
        Regression: Yes


It looks like commit 0dc698b93f3eecdda43b22232131324eb41e510c
causes init to segfault at boot time on one of my computers.

Reverting 0dc698b9 on top of 2.6.35-rc2 solves the problem.

FWIW, the problem does not occur on my laptop (ThinkPad X60) with (mostly) the
same software and the same kernel.

The output on failed boot (2.6.35-rc2) is:

INIT: version 2.86 booting
