Hi!
A lot of NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 messages (about 100) and
then suddenly stoped to show. I have 2.6.21.1. I checked .2 and .3
changelogs but I don't see anything about this message.
What does it mean?
Is 08 IRQ number?
8: 2XT-PIC-XTrtc
Please CC me.

This just adds minimum support for the Blackfin relocations,
since we don't have enough space in each reloc. The idea
