X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=41e9b63b35b52cf918a4ffdb8d77862ab824aa8b;p=linux-beck.git

[PATCH] mm: pfault optimisation

This atomic operation is superfluous: the pte will be added with the
referenced bit set, and the page will be referenced through this mapping after
the page fault handler returns anyway.
