From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2015 19:33:11 +0000 (+0100) Subject: stop_machine: Fix possible cpu_stopper_thread() crash X-Git-Tag: v4.5-rc1~169^2~25 X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=64038f292a1b33c7d46bd11f62f7798101152c00;p=linux.git stop_machine: Fix possible cpu_stopper_thread() crash stop_one_cpu_nowait(fn) will crash the kernel if the callback returns nonzero, work->done == NULL in this case. This needs more cleanups, cpu_stop_signal_done() is called right after we check done != NULL and it does the same check.
