4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Rui Wang <[email protected]> commit 9d98bcec731756b8688b59ec998707924d716d7b upstream. On a 4-socket Brickland system, hot-removing one ioapic is fine. Hot-removing the 2nd one causes panic in mp_unregister_ioapic() while calling release_resource(). It is because the iomem_res pointer has already been released when removing the first ioapic. To explain the use of &res[num] here: res is assigned to ioapic_resources, and later in ioapic_insert_resources() we do: struct resource *r = ioapic_resources; for_each_ioapic(i) { insert_resource(&iomem_resource, r); r++; } Here 'r' is treated as an arry of 'struct resource', and the r++ ensures that each element of the array is inserted separately. Thus we should call release_resouce() on each element at &res[num]. Fix it by assigning the correct pointers to ioapics[i].iomem_res in ioapic_setup_resources().
