Subject: [PATCH] arm64: use preempt_disable_notrace in _percpu_read/write
Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2016 14:02:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160908130245.GD26570@leverpostej> (raw)

Hi,

In future, please ensure that you include the arm64 maintainers when
sending changes to core arm64 code. I've copied Catalin and Will for you
this time.

Thanks,
Mark.
