Subject: Re: [PATCH] ARM: BUG() dies silently

Hi Stephen,

Sorry for the confusion, but in fact I was talking about the patch to
make ARM use the generic bug handling via an undef instruction instead
of calling ______bug() or writing to memory address 0. Please see
here:

http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=6808/1

Regards,
Simon
