commitd96cc49bffupstream. enter_lazy_tlb is called when a kernel thread rides on the back of another mm, due to a context switch or an explicit call to unuse_mm where a call to switch_mm is elided. In these cases, it's important to keep the saved ttbr value up to date with the active mm, otherwise we can end up with a stale value which points to a potentially freed page table. This patch implements enter_lazy_tlb for arm64, so that the saved ttbr0 is kept up-to-date with the active mm for kernel threads.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
