Is that entry_64.S case an oversight, or do we need an extensive comment on this one? > addr_limit_user_check(); > > lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled(); > @@ -137,6 +139,8 @@ static void exit_to_usermode_loop(struct > user_enter_irqoff(); > > mds_user_clear_cpu_buffers(); > + /* Return to userspace (IRET) will re-enable interrupts */ > + trace_hardirqs_on(); > }
