[PATCH v3 03/13] arm: adjust_pte() use pte_offset_map_nolock()

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

 



Instead of pte_lockptr(), use the recently added pte_offset_map_nolock()
in adjust_pte(): because it gives the not-locked ptl for precisely that
pte, which the caller can then safely lock; whereas pte_lockptr() is not
so tightly coupled, because it dereferences the pmd pointer again.
