From 1a43a14a5bd9c32dbd7af35e35a5afa703944bcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2014 21:36:44 +0200 Subject: sched: Fix schedule_tail() to disable preemption finish_task_switch() enables preemption, so post_schedule(rq) can be called on the wrong (and even dead) CPU. Afaics, nothing really bad can happen, but in this case we can wrongly clear rq->post_schedule on that CPU. And this simply looks wrong in any case.
