This is the 3rd of 4 patchs to kernel/smp.c since 2.6.38 and the first 3 are all marked for stable. The commit only touches kernel/smp.c Perhaps you tried to apply it out of order? Or did the (v2.6.32 and later) on the other commits cc: stable confuse the scripts? git rev-list --pretty=oneline v2.6.38..723aae25d5c -- kernel/smp.c 723aae25d5cdb09962901d36d526b44d4be1051c smp_call_function_many: handle concurrent clearing of mask 45a5791920ae643eafc02e2eedef1a58e341b736 call_function_many: add missing ordering e6cd1e07a185d5f9b0aa75e020df02d3c1c44940 call_function_many: fix list delete vs add race Also, like the previous 2, it should be backported though 2.6.32 as there were at least 3 callsites that are affected by the patch that could otherwise lockup without alternative measures. Hmm, it looks like there will be some rediff needed to get all the way back to 32. milton _______________________________________________ stable mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/stable
