Yep it's a known problem but no one has bothered to fix it since it doesn't happen in a config that anyone cares about like pseries_defconfig and ppc64_defconfig. We've been moving code around in this area a lot recently hence the breakage. It should be fixed though. Patches welcome. :-) Mikey -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
