Actually, this is wrong. And I was wrong to say that the fix was to initialize the dummy domain (because its ->flags are 0, there is no need for it to have anything else set up).
The isolated domains don't need to be set up because they correctly point to the dummy domain, which is already set up properly (zeroed). The oops is just a problem with sched_domain_debug.
Andrew and/or Linus, please make sure Dimitri's patch gets reverted and the attached one applied before 2.6.10.
Fix an oops in sched_domain_debug when using the isolcpus= option.
Also move a debug check for validating groups into the "for-each-group" loop, where it should be.
