Subject: [PATCH 098/173] [PARISC] fix per-cpu flag problem in the cpu affinity checkers

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

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

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit 9804c9eaeacfe78651052c5ddff31099f60ef78c upstream.

The CHECK_IRQ_PER_CPU is wrong, it should be checking
irq_to_desc(irq)->status not just irq.
