. Included most of the new AIO code which has been floating about.  This
  all still needs considerable thought and review, but we may as well get it

Re: 2.5.69-mm7

[Andy Whitcroft]

Seems that -mm7, has broken compilation of subarch visws:

arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o: In function `cpu_stop_apics':
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xe511): undefined reference to 
`stop_this_cpu'
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o: In function `stop_apics':
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xe552): undefined reference to 
`reboot_cpu'
arch/i386/mach-visws/built-in.o: In function `machine_restart':
arch/i386/mach-visws/built-in.o(.text+0x1): undefined reference to 
`smp_send_stop'

Seems that the culprit is the reboot on boot processor changes, reverting 
the following patches fixes the compilation:

	patch -R -p1 <kexec-revert-NORET_TYPE.patch
	patch -R -p1 <reboot_on_bsp.patch

Cheers.

Do you have a machine to test against.  Or is this a test for completeness?

I don't get the subarch factoring.  And as such I cannot see how to
properly fixup the subarch code.
