| |
2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
fixed upstream in 2.6.28 in merge of ioapic*.c for x86
In io_apic_32.c the logic of no_timer_check is "always make timer_irq_works return 1".
Io_apic_64.c on the other hand checks for if (!no_timer_check && timer_irq_works()) basically meaning "make timer_irq_works fail" in the crucial first check.
Now, in order to not move too much code, we can just reverse the logic here and should be fine off, basically rendering no_timer_check useful again.
This issue seems to be resolved as of 2.6.28 by the merge of io_apic*.c, but still exists for at least 2.6.27.
