From: Chuck Ebbert <[email protected]>
The new percpu code has apparently broken the doublefault handler
when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is set. Doublefault is handled by
a hardware task, making the check
SPIN_BUG_ON(lock->owner == current, lock, "recursion");
fault because it uses the FS register to access the percpu data
for current, and that register is zero in the new TSS. (The trace
I saw was on 2.6.20 where it was GS, but it looks like this will
still happen with FS on 2.6.22.)
Initializing FS in the doublefault_tss should fix it.
AK: Also fix broken ptr_ok() and turn printks into KERN_EMERG
AK: And add a PANIC prefix to make clear the system will hang
AK: (e.g. x86-64 will recover)
