Slightly different patch - there were three revisions. I can't attach a tested-by given to a different patch to this one.

That means omap2plus_defconfig .38 mainline kernels (including -stable) will remain potentially dangerous when run on SMP capable hardware.I must admit that this series looks a bit large for stable IMHO. I think that the fix for stable should limit itself only to prevent SMP from being selected if anything else than CPU_32v6K is selected.
The first three are the bare minimum required for -stable.
