Subject: [PATCH 6/8] blackfin: Fix possible race on task->mm
Date: Tue, 7 Feb 2012 10:50:54 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120207065054.GF1496@oksana.dev.rtsoft.ru> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120207064809.GA29061@oksana.dev.rtsoft.ru>
Even when in atomic context, grabbing irqsave variant of tasklist lock
is not enough to protect task->mm from disappearing on SMP machines.
Instead, we have to grab the task lock.
Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton.vorontsov@linaro.org>

p.s. I don't have blackfin toolchain handy, so I did not build-test
the patch.
