The kernel command parameter 'hpet_mmap' never takes effect due to missing
'=' character in the __setup() code of hpet_mmap_enable and the memory map
of the HPET registers never get expose to userspace.

What commit caused this bug?  Should this go to the stable kernel trees?

Hello Greg,

The commit id is 3d035f58. The bug is there since the initial patch which
introduced the kernel parameter 'hpet_mmap'. The fix should go to the
stable kernel trees.

Buland Singh

Great, can you resend it with all of this information (a fixes: and cc:
stable tag?)
