[PATCH] ARM: KVM: fix unbalanced get_cpu() in access_dcsw

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the very unlikely event where a guest would be foolish enough to
*read* from a write-only cache maintainance register, we end up
with preemption disabled, due to a misplaced get_cpu().

Just move the "is_write" test outside of the critical section.
