[029/114] x86, apic: Fix apic=debug boot crash

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Aug 24 2010 - 19:20:36 EST


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

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

From: Daniel Kiper <dkiper@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 05e407603e527f9d808dd3866d3a17c2ce4dfcc5 upstream.

Fix a boot crash when apic=debug is used and the APIC is
not properly initialized.

This issue appears during Xen Dom0 kernel boot but the
fix is generic and the crash could occur on real hardware
as well.
