[patch 0/3] x86_64: CPA, fix cache attribute inconsistency bug

From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Fri Feb 15 2008 - 14:55:39 EST



the following 3 patches are the backports to 2.6.22, 2.6.23 and 2.6.24
of a CPA bug we found while writing 2.6.25's new CPA code.

the bug affects the 64-bit kernel on two popular Linux distros, Fedora
and Ubuntu:

$ grep RELOCA /boot/config-2.6.23.9-85.fc8
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

$ grep RELOC /boot/config-2.6.22-14-generic
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

havent checked more.

(There are no upstream commits for this because this code is not present
in the new code.)
