[Bug 246067] Re: Kernel panic during boot in VirtualBox with kernel 2.6.26.*-generic

[Colin King]

Christoph,

Thanks for the reverse patch - from this I was able to reduce it down to
a few changes which seems to fix the problem with my VirtualBox test
environment.

    UBUNTU: SAUCE: fix kernel oops in VirtualBox during paravirt patching
    Bug: 246067
    
    Paravirtualisation patching of kernel trips a kernel oops when
    running in VirtualBox. Turning off interrupts around the
    entire paravirtualisation patching process avoids patching
    active code inside an interrupt.
