From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2015 03:32:42 +0000 (-0700) Subject: perf/x86/hw_breakpoints: Fix check for kernel-space breakpoints X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=27747f8bc355a2808ca9e490ab6866acd85b4c16;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git perf/x86/hw_breakpoints: Fix check for kernel-space breakpoints The check looked wrong, although I think it was actually safe. TASK_SIZE is unnecessarily small for compat tasks, and it wasn't possible to make a range breakpoint so large it started in user space and ended in kernel space. Nonetheless, let's fix up the check for the benefit of future readers. A breakpoint is in the kernel if either end is in the kernel.
