From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2017 22:07:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 01/13] ia64/topology: Remove cpus_allowed manipulation The CPU hotplug callback fiddles with the cpus_allowed pointer to pin the calling thread on the plugged CPU. That's already guaranteed by the hotplug core code. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Fenghua Yu Cc: Tony Luck Cc: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org Cc: Herbert Xu Cc: "Rafael J.
