Hi all,

This patch series fixes some minor preempt_count bookkeeping issues in
arch/powerpc/ found during a preemption leak audit prompted by the
lazy/full preemption model changes. These are get_cpu/put_cpu and
get_cpu_var/put_cpu_var pairing errors that leave preempt_count
incorrectly elevated or underflowed.
All 3 patches looks good. Aren't these candidates for stable tree?
Then why not add Cc: tag too?

For all 3 -
