Subject: [PATCH] ppc32: fix destroy_context() race condition
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ddca3b80cef36cc668f924ef5154a79acb19ebd7;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] ppc32: fix destroy_context() race condition

Fix for a race condition when a task gets preempted by another task while
executing the destroy_context(...) in a FEW_CONTEXTS environment.
mm->context == NO_CONTEXT but the context_map may indicate all contexts are
in use.

The solution to this problem is to disable kernel preemption while
destroying a MMU context.
