Created attachment 362893 [details] Initial patch submitted by achiang and myself Description of problem: dzickus has noted that several patches now depend on smp_call_function_single() and smp_call_function_many().

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.18-166.el5 Additional info: Patch is based on the one that I am working with for the MCE code, and that was submitted by achiang as part of his powernow driver update.
