There not that much diff rest: - apic clock calibration - x2apic operations - interrupt handlers (different declarations) - command line handling ugh... maybe not that small heap of todo's :) Anyway - before sending patches I'll fetch tip/x86/apic branch so no problem if someone bring any changes into the branch. - Cyrill - -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
