Subject: Re: Got FPU related warning on Intel Quark during boot


I've Cc:-ed more FPU developers. Mail quoted below. I don't have a Quark system to 
test this on, but maybe others have an idea why this warning triggers?

My thinking is that it's related to:

  58122bf1d856 x86/fpu: Default eagerfpu=on on all CPUs

Thanks,

	Ingo
