Argh, can't remember, can't find it with archive grep. I just have a mental note that it got fixed somehow. Perhaps by uprevving the compiler version? We certainly have a ton of uninitialised DEFINE_PER_CPUs in there nowadays and people's kernels aren't crashing. Rusty, do you recall if/how we fixed the DEFINE_PER_CPU-needs-explicit-initialisation thing? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
