So this works but uncovers a new bug. Stuart: if you apply this patch allmodconfig now gets this build error on linux-next. arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `restore_pblist_ptr': ftrace.c:(.toc+0xd78): undefined reference to `epapr_ev_idle_start' ftrace.c:(.toc+0xd88): undefined reference to `epapr_ev_idle' make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 Reverting your patch below fixes this: commit f070986a07e514e3b4fc4aef6551b8dffcb19287 Author: Stuart Yoder <stuart.yoder@...escale.com> Date: Fri Feb 8 13:22:56 2013 -0600 powerpc: Add paravirt idle loop for 64-bit Book-E Signed-off-by: Stuart Yoder <stuart.yoder@...escale.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@...nel.crashing.org> Should we revert your patch or can you send a fix? This is currently broken in linux-next (at least next-20130321).
