Eric Paris reported:

&gt; I have an hp dl785g5 which is unable to successfully run
&gt; 2.6.29-0.66.rc3.fc11.x86_64 or 2.6.29-rc2-next-20090126.  During bootup
&gt; (early in userspace daemons starting) I get the below BUG, which quickly
&gt; renders the machine dead.  I assume it is because sparse_irq_lock never
&gt; gets released when the BUG kills that task.

Adjust lock sequence when migrating a descriptor with
CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC enabled.

Move the initialization of irq_default_affinity to early_irq_init as
core_initcall is too late.

irq_default_affinity can be used in init_IRQ and potentially timer and
SMP init as well.  All of these happen before core_initcall.  Moving
the initialization to early_irq_init ensures that it is initialized
before it is used.

<title>async: Asynchronous function calls to speed up kernel boot</title>

<content type='text'>
Right now, most of the kernel boot is strictly synchronous, such that
various hardware delays are done sequentially.

In order to make the kernel boot faster, this patch introduces
infrastructure to allow doing some of the initialization steps
asynchronously, which will hide significant portions of the hardware delays
in practice.

In order to not change device order and other similar observables, this
patch does NOT do full parallel initialization.

Rather, it operates more in the way an out of order CPU does; the work may
be done out of order and asynchronous, but the observable effects
(instruction retiring for the CPU) are still done in the original sequence.

Impact: build fix on ia64

ia64's default_affinity_write() still had old cpumask_t usage:

 /home/mingo/tip/kernel/irq/proc.c: In function `default_affinity_write':
 /home/mingo/tip/kernel/irq/proc.c:114: error: incompatible type for argument 1 of `is_affinity_mask_valid'
 make[3]: *** [kernel/irq/proc.o] Error 1
 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

update it to cpumask_var_t.
