That is a thinko in the preempt patch, not -ac... don't bother Alan with
it.

There is a new version of the patch up at the usual place which is
fixed. Or in smp.c just replace

cpu = get_cpu();

with

preempt_disable();
cpu = smp_processor_id();

and replace

put_cpu();

with

preempt_enable();

Sincerely,
