Subject: Fix clear_refs_write() use of struct mm_walk
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=20cbc972617069c1ed434f62151e4de57d26ea46;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

Fix clear_refs_write() use of struct mm_walk

Don't use a static entry, so as to prevent races during concurrent use
of this function.
