X-Git-Tag: v2.6.15-rc2~37^2~15 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1e28a7ddd3e713384e9c6768e7c502031dc205e2;p=linux-2.6 [PATCH] Avoid use of uninitialised spinlock in EEH. If the kernel supports both G5 and pSeries, and CONFIG_EEH is enabled, eeh_init() is (quite reasonably) never called when we boot on a G5. Yet eeh_check_failure() still gets called. We should avoid doing that if !eeh_subsystem_enabled.
