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.Boot tested the 14 patch series ?with CONFIG_SWP_EMULATE enabled, on the following boards : 1. Omap2420 SDP 2. Omap2430 SDP 3. Omap3430 SDP 4. Omap4 Blaze Tested-by: Sourav Poddar [off-list ref]
Thanks. It's also important to ascertain which filesystems were tested - could you let me know please?
