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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@xxxxxxxx>

commit 56008c04ebc099940021b714da2d7779117cf6a7 upstream.

It's always bothered me that we only disable preemption in
copy_user_page around the call to flush_dcache_page_asm.
This patch extends this to after the copy.
