[PATCH 3.16 104/254] MIPS: MSA: bugfix - disable MSA correctly for new threads/processes.

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

 



3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9cc719ab3f4f639d629ac8ff09e9b998bc006f68 upstream.

Due to the slightly odd way that new threads and processes start execution
when scheduled for the very first time they were bypassing the required
disable_msa call.
