[PATCH] [2/2] Don't complain about disabled irqs when the system has paniced

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Tue Sep 02 2008 - 09:50:14 EST



panic calls smp_send_stop which eventually calls smp_call_function_*.
smp_call_function warns about disabled interrupts. But it's legal
to call panic in this case. When this happens panic() prints
several ugly backtraces. So don't check for disabled interrupts
in panic state.
