[PATCH 19/23] x86/efi: Make efi_enter/leave_mm use the temporary_mm machinery

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

 



This should be considerably more robust.  It's also necessary for optimized
for_each_possible_lazymm_cpu() on x86 -- without this patch, EFI calls in
lazy context would remove the lazy mm from mm_cpumask().
