[patch 09/12] Fix SMP poweroff hangs

From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Oct 08 2007 - 14:35:27 EST


From: Mark Lord <lkml@xxxxxx>

commit 4047727e5ae33f9b8d2b7766d1994ea6e5ec2991 from upstream

We need to disable all CPUs other than the boot CPU (usually 0) before
attempting to power-off modern SMP machines. This fixes the
hang-on-poweroff issue on my MythTV SMP box, and also on Thomas Gleixner's
new toybox.
