ia64: mca: allocate early mca with GFP_ATOMIC
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The sleep warning happens at early boot right at secondary CPU
activation bootup:

    smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...
    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/page_alloc.c:4942
    in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1

    Fixed BSP b0 value from CPU 1

As I understand interrupts are not enabled yet and system has a lot of
memory.  There is little chance to sleep and switch to GFP_ATOMIC should
be a no-op.
