From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Apr 30 2009 - 13:34:46 EST



2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Amit Shah <amit.shah@xxxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from c0d09828c870f90c6bc72070ada281568f89c63b)

The busy flag of the TR selector is not set by the hardware. This breaks
migration from amd hosts to intel hosts.
