From: Jan Beulich Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2007 16:04:33 +0000 (+0200) Subject: i386: avoid temporarily inconsistent pte-s X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=aa506dc7b12d03fbf8fd11aab752aed1aadd9c07;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git i386: avoid temporarily inconsistent pte-s One more of these issues (which were considered fixed a few releases back): other than on x86-64, i386 allows set_fixmap() to replace already present mappings. Consequently, on PAE, care must be taken to not update the high half of a pte while the low half is still holding the old value.
