From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Feb 22 2011 - 17:34:25 EST


2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Brian Gerst <brgerst@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 7b698ea377e10b074ceef0d79218e6622d618421 upstream.

Mathias Merz reported that v2.6.37 failed to boot on his
system.

Make sure that the thread_info part of the irqstack is
initialized to zeroes.
