I tweaked it a bit and added some debugging, and I got this: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/commit/?h=x86/fixes&id=dd956eba16646fd0b15c3c0741269dfd84452dac I made the loaded_mm handling a little more conservative to make it more obvious that switch_mm_irqs_off() is safe regardless of exactly when it gets called relative to switching current.
