But when DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y is enabled, my powerNV system failed to boot because in sched_init_numa(), cpumask_or() operation was done on unallocated nodes. Fix that by making cpumask_or() operation only on existing nodes.

Hello Greg, Above commit fixes the debug kernel crash in 4.4 kernel [ when DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y to be precise]. This is a regression in 4.4 from 4.3 and should be ideally present in 4.4-stable. Could you please pull in this change.? _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
