2.6.17-rc3 -- SMP alternatives: switching to UP code

Hi list.

I just noticed this in the 2.6.17-rc3 dmesg:

===
Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK.
SMP alternatives: switching to UP code
Freeing SMP alternatives: 0k freed
ACPI: setting ELCR to 0400 (from 1608)
===

Should I be seeing this "SMP alternatives" thing on a !CONFIG_SMPkernel? It does say 0k, but something is apparently being done atruntime still. Why?


Rene.
