Subject: x86/mce: Do not change worker's running cpu in cmci_rediscover().
X-Git-Tag: v3.7-rc7~4^2~6^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=85b97637bb40a9f486459dd254598759af9c3d50;p=pandora-kernel.git

x86/mce: Do not change worker's running cpu in cmci_rediscover().

cmci_rediscover() used set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to change the current process's
running cpu, and migrate itself to the dest cpu. But worker processes are not
allowed to be migrated. If current is a worker, the worker will be migrated to
another cpu, but the corresponding  worker_pool is still on the original cpu.

In this case, the following BUG_ON in try_to_wake_up_local() will be triggered:
BUG_ON(rq != this_rq());

This will cause the kernel panic. The call trace is like the following:

This patch removes the set_cpus_allowed_ptr() call, and put the cmci rediscover
jobs onto all the other cpus using system_wq. This could bring some delay for
the jobs.
