qemu:arm test failure due to commit 8053871d0f7f (smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async() locking)

[Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>]

Hi all,

my qemu test for arm:vexpress fails with the latest upstream kernel. It fails
hard - I don't get any output from the console. Bisect points to commit
8053871d0f7f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async() locking").
Reverting this commit fixes the problem.

Please let me know if there is anything I can help to track down the problem.

Thanks,
Guenter
