This fixes a race in migration_thread which results in a deadlock on boot for some SMP systems. The fix is to to disable preemption inside of set_cpus_allowed. Andrew Morton first noticed the problem and provided the following patch a few weeks back. I was not affected until the recent migration_init fix, for some odd reason. Neither Andrew nor I think this is actually kernel preemption's fault but perhaps a race in the tricky behavior of the migration code.
