[011/146] powerpc/kdump64: Dont reference freed memory as pacas
From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Jun 01 2011 - 04:07:23 EST
2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Milton Miller <miltonm@xxxxxxx>
commit bd9e5eefecb3d69018bb95796298019d309cbec8 upstream.
Starting with 1426d5a3bd07589534286375998c0c8c6fdc5260 (powerpc:
Dynamically allocate pacas) the space for pacas beyond cpu_possible
is freed, but we failed to update the loop in crash.c.
Since c1854e00727f50f7ac99e98d26ece04c087ef785 (powerpc: Set nr_cpu_ids
early and use it to free PACAs) the number of pacas allocated is
always nr_cpu_ids.
