2.6.39-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: kerstin jonsson <[email protected]> commit c560bbceaf6b06e52f1ef20131b76a3fdc0a2c19 upstream. commit c56e58537d504706954a06570b4034c04e5b7500 breaks SMP support in PPC_47x chip. secondary_ti must be set to current thread info before callin kick_cpu or else start_secondary_47x will jump into void when trying to return to c-code. In the current setup secondary_ti is initialized before the CPU idle task is started and only the boot core will start. I am not sure this is the correct solution, but it makes SMP possible in my chip. Note! The HOTPLUG support probably need some fixing to, There is no trampoline code available in head_44x.S - start_secondary_resume?
