locking/refcounts, x86/asm: Disable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT for the time being
Mike Galbraith bisected a boot crash back to the following commit: 7a46ec0e ("locking/refcounts, x86/asm: Implement fast refcount overflow protection") The crash/hang pattern is: > Symptom is a few splats as below, with box finally hanging. Network > comes up, but neither ssh nor console login is possible. > > ------------[ cut here ]------------ > WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 0 at net/netlink/af_netlink.c:374 netlink_sock_destruct+0x82/0xa0 > ... > __sk_destruct() > rcu_process_callbacks() > __do_softirq() > irq_exit() > smp_apic_timer_interrupt() > apic_timer_interrupt() We are at -rc7 already, and the code has grown some dependencies, so instead of a plain revert disable the config temporarily, in the hope of getting real fixes.
