x86 ACPI: fix breakage of resume on 64-bit UP systems with SMP kernel
commit 3038edabf48f01421c621cb77a712b446d3a5d67 upstream
x86 ACPI: Fix breakage of resume on 64-bit UP systems with SMP kernel
We are now using per CPU GDT tables in head_64.S and the original
early_gdt_descr.address is invalidated after boot by
setup_per_cpu_areas(). This breaks resume from suspend to RAM on
x86_64 UP systems using SMP kernels, because this part of head_64.S
is also executed during the resume and the invalid GDT address
causes the system to crash. It doesn't break on 'true' SMP systems,
because early_gdt_descr.address is modified every time
native_cpu_up() runs. However, during resume it should point to the
GDT of the boot CPU rather than to another CPU's GDT.
For this reason, during suspend to RAM always make
early_gdt_descr.address point to the boot CPU's GDT.
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11568, which
is a regression from 2.6.26.
