Subject: mm: allow preemption in apply_to_pte_range
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=252a6bf2a3a7e7add56b17d48aecf3f3ef213103;p=linux-beck.git

mm: allow preemption in apply_to_pte_range

Impact: allow preemption in apply_to_pte_range updates to init_mm

Preemption is now allowed for lazy mmu mode, so don't disable
it for the inner loop of apply_to_pte_range.  This only applies
when doing updates to init_mm; user pagetables are still modified
under the pte lock, so preemption is disabled anyway.
