[PATCH 1/5] x86: mce: Disable preemption when calling raise_local()
From: Chen Gong
Date: Thu Jul 19 2012 - 01:58:42 EST
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
raise_mce() has a code path which does not disable preemption when the
raise_local() is called. The per cpu variable access in raise_local()
depends on preemption being disabled to be functional. So that code
path was either never tested or never tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT
enabled.
Add the missing preempt_disable/enable() pair around the call.
