The following commit has been merged into the x86/fpu branch of tip: Commit-ID: cb3ea4b7671b7cfbac3ee609976b790aebd0bbda Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/cb3ea4b7671b7cfbac3ee609976b790aebd0bbda Author: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue, 24 Jan 2023 08:23:20 -07:00 Committer: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Wed, 25 Jan 2023 12:35:15 +01:00 x86/fpu: Don't set TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD for PF_IO_WORKER threads We don't set it on PF_KTHREAD threads as they never return to userspace, and PF_IO_WORKER threads are identical in that regard. As they keep running in the kernel until they die, skip setting the FPU flag on them. More of a cosmetic thing that was found while debugging and issue and pondering why the FPU flag is set on these threads.
