From 1fa744e6e91a895750b9980d13fcfc5791a0cd91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2006 00:12:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] cpu hotplug/x86_64: disable interrupt in play_dead With physical CPU hotplug, the CPU is hot removed and it should not receive any interrupts. Disabling interrupt is much safer. This basically is what we do in ia64 & x86.
