Hi Ingo
Above patch does solve __ soft_irq_pending __ problem. I am running this patch
with kernel 2.6.21.1 since last day doing all kinda things but haven't
encountered any __ NOHZ: local_softirq_pending __. But network lag that I am
seeing since 2.6.22-rc1 is still there even with this patch applied. If you
need any more information please do ask. Meanwhile I will do gitbisect as
suggested by linus to find out the specific commit that introduced this
problem and will inform once I find it. Its good to see system running
without any __ local_softirq_problem __ :)
Regards
Ananitya
