ChangeSet 1.2231.1.80, 2005/03/28 19:38:48-08:00, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [PATCH] x86_64: Don't enable interrupts in oopses unconditionally The original reason for it was to allow backwards scrolling on the console, but that didn't work for other reasons anyways. And in some cases the early interrupt enabling can lead to a nested oops.
