I did this, but unfortunately it ends up having to individually map all four pieces of cpu_entry_area. They all need different permissions and while theoretically we could do TSS+exception-stacks in the same call, they're not next to each other: GDT: R/O TSS: R/W at least because of trampoline stack entry code: EXEC+R/O exception stacks: R/W -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
