[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86: enable interrupts explicitly in __start_xen()
Instead of relying on smp_prepare_cpus() (via check_nmi_watchdog()) or init_xen_time() (via init_platform_timer() -> plt_overflow()) implicitly enabling interrupts, enable them explicitly once safe to do so (it may actually be possible to move this even further up, but I don''t think that would buy us much).
