[PATCH] x86: check for valid irq_cfg pointer insmp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt

From: Dimitri Sivanich
Date: Mon May 21 2012 - 12:50:01 EST


The smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt routine should be checking for a valid
irq_cfg pointer prior to accessing it. It also seems that this should be
done after taking the desc lock.
