Subject: keep rd->online and cpu_online_map in sync
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.25-rc6~42^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=08f503b0c089968b2542659a89dfd50c5c59bb0b;p=pandora-kernel.git

keep rd->online and cpu_online_map in sync

It is possible to allow the root-domain cache of online cpus to
become out of sync with the global cpu_online_map.  This is because we
currently trigger removal of cpus too early in the notifier chain.
Other DOWN_PREPARE handlers may in fact run and reconfigure the
root-domain topology, thereby stomping on our own offline handling.

The end result is that rd->online may become out of sync with
cpu_online_map, which results in potential task misrouting.

So change the offline handling to be more tightly coupled with the
global offline process by triggering on CPU_DYING intead of
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.
