[PATCH 3.12 004/142] x86, cpu hotplug: Fix stack frame warning in check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable()

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Fri Sep 26 2014 - 06:22:27 EST


From: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@xxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 39424e89d64661faa0a2e00c5ad1e6dbeebfa972 upstream.

Further discussion here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=139073901101034&w=2

kbuild, 0day kernel build service, outputs the warning:

arch/x86/kernel/irq.c:333:1: warning: the frame size of 2056 bytes
is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

because check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() allocates two cpumasks on the
stack. Fix this by moving the two cpumasks to a global file context.
