Subject: lazy tlb: consolidate lazy tlb mm switching fix
Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2023 10:56:22 +1000
Fix an upstream powerpc bug that was discovered with a WARN_ON added in
"lazy tlb: consolidate lazy tlb mm switching":
Switching mm and tinkering with current->active_mm should be done with
irqs disabled. There is a path where exit_lazy_flush_tlb can be called
with irqs enabled:
exit_lazy_flush_tlb
flush_type_needed
__flush_all_mm
tlb_finish_mmu
exit_mmap
Which results in the switching being incorrectly with irqs enabled.

I will send that fix upstream, which will end up conflicting with these.
The resolution will be to take akpm's side of the merge (with this patch).
Or drop the patch when it conflicts and I'll resend it rebased on the fix.
