[patch 43/45] x86: replace LOCK_PREFIX in futex.h

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Feb 07 2008 - 16:15:08 EST


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

------------------
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The exception fixup for the futex macros __futex_atomic_op1/2 and
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is missing an entry when the lock
prefix is replaced by a NOP via SMP alternatives.

Chuck Ebert tracked this down from the information provided in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=429412

A possible solution would be to add another fixup after the
LOCK_PREFIX, so both the LOCK and NOP case have their own entry in the
exception table, but it's not really worth the trouble.

Simply replace LOCK_PREFIX with lock and keep those untouched by SMP
alternatives.
