From 9bf11ecce5a2758e5a097c2f3a13d08552d0d6f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2016 12:01:05 +0100 Subject: clocksource/dummy_timer: Move hotplug callback after the real timers When the dummy timer callback is invoked before the real timer callbacks, then it tries to install that timer for the starting CPU. If the platform does not have a broadcast timer installed the installation fails with a kernel crash. The crash happens due to a unconditional deference of the non available broadcast device. This needs to be fixed in the timer core code. But even when this is fixed in the core code then installing the dummy timer before the real timers is a pointless exercise. Move it to the end of the callback list.
