Regression in 32-bit ppc kernel

[Larry Finger]

Hi,

Somewhere between v3.2 and v3.3, the kernel in my Powerbook G4 started issuing 
the following traceback on bootup:

[   40.264006] irq 23: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
[   40.264031] Call Trace:

The problem still exists in v3.4-rc3. I am currently doing a bisection of this 
problem, but it will take a long time to complete.

Note: IRQ 23 is not active in v3.2.

Thanks,

Larry
