From a7428cd2ef77734465e36bceb43290e37e2a97c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2009 11:48:00 +0400 Subject: x86, ioapic: Throw BUG instead of NULL dereference Instead of plain NULL deref we better throw error message with a backtrace. Actually we need more gracious error handling here. Meanwhile leave it as is.
