Thank you for checking, Feng.
Len, the comment above the change says:
/*
* FIXME: Design the ACPI notification to make it once per
* system instead of once per-cpu. This condition is a hack
* to make the code that updates C-States be called once.
*/
Is it time for this design-level change? Or is there something obvious
that I missed when fixing the smp_processor_id() splat?
I could revert back, but use raw_smp_processor_id() rather than
smp_processor_id(), but that feels like papering over a problem rather
than fixing it.
Thoughts?
Thanx, Paul
