[PATCH v3 10/15] ARM: spectre-v2: warn about incorrect context switching functions

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

 



Warn at error level if the context switching function is not what we
are expecting.  This can happen with big.Little systems, which we
currently do not support.
