The commit ac3d0da8f3290b3d394cdb7f50604424a7cd6092 should avoid this from happening, not sure what branch its on, but it was in tip before all this landed, so I guess its due to you testing sched/numa branch and not a merged branch like master or auto-next. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
