I would never dare to call maxcpus=1 being a 'solution' to any problem. Everybody going out to buy some C2d, 3core, 4 core cpus and then use maxcpus=1? I hope not!
Do you know the meaning of "seems"? Did you see anyone using multiple CPUs or multicore CPU reply in thread that he sees the same problem? Did you see anyone reply in thread that he sees the same problem? Did you see anyone but me still using 2.6.24 kernels? Don't you suppose anyone who might see this problem on a multiple core system would rather have a suboptimal system than a non-functional system?
I believe "seems solved" is a clue that this could be a problem only for those with single core/single CPUs, and maybe only for those whose hardware closely matches mine Also it's better than the many threads where problems are described but never have any confirmation or solution or workaround of any kind noted for Googlers who encounter the same or similar problem.
Frankly, this reads quiet heavy and has a very aggressive tone... but let's skip this and get back to normal, shall we? I agree it's a workaround and I agree with you that is has to be stated. But the worst I can EVER see on whatever site / list / forum is talking about 'something being solved' / 'something seeming to be solved' ( which actually just means that 'it looks like solved ro me' and not stating any side effects or telling honestly that he's talking about a work around. Please try to distinguish between solution and workaround.. they're clearly NOT the same.
