Subject: [PATCH 2/5] MIPS: Allow kernel to use coprocessor 2
Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2013 13:00:01 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370849404-4918-3-git-send-email-jchandra@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1370849404-4918-1-git-send-email-jchandra@broadcom.com>
Kernel threads should be able to use COP2 if the platform needs it.
Do not call die_if_kernel() for a coprocessor unusable exception if
the exception due to COP2 usage. Instead, the default notifier for
COP2 exceptions is updated to call die_if_kernel.
