It could, but it fails the "real bug" test: - It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a problem..." type thing). (from Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt) Because the node we're leaking a reference on is /cpus, and in practice that's pretty harmless. cheers _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
