[PATCH resend] x86/platform: Remove incorrect error message inx86_default_fixup_cpu_id()

From: Andreas Herrmann
Date: Mon Apr 02 2012 - 12:06:56 EST



It's only called from amd.c:srat_detect_node(). The introduced
condition for calling the fixup code is true for all AMD multi-node
processors, e.g. Magny-Cours and Interlagos. There we have 2 NUMA
nodes on one socket. Thus there are cores having different
numa-node-id but with equal phys_proc_id.

There is no point to print error messages in such a situation.

The confusing/misleading error message was introduced with commit
64be4c1c2428e148de6081af235e2418e6a66dda (x86: Add x86_init platform
override to fix up NUMA core numbering).

Remove the default fixup function (especially the error message) and
replace it by a NULL pointer check, move the Numascale-specific
condition for calling the fixup into the fixup-function itself and
slightly adapt the comment.

This patch didn't make it into v3.3.
But the misleading error message introduced with numachip support was
merged.

Please apply this patch.


Thanks,

Andreas
