From ae7c9b70dcb4313ea3dbcc9a2f240dae6c2b50c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacob Pan Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2010 11:23:43 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86, mrst: Conditionally register cpu hotplug notifier for apbt APB timer is used on Moorestown platforms but not on a standard PC. If APB timer code is compiled in but not initialized at run-time due to lack of FW reported SFI table, kernel would panic when the non-boot CPUs are offlined and notifier is called. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15786 This patch ensures CPU hotplug notifier for APB timer is only registered when the APBT timer block is initialized.
