Subject: [PATCH 2/4] arm64: Avoid double evaluation of __ptep_get()
Date: Wed,  3 Jun 2026 18:09:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260603160949.3372482-8-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260603160949.3372482-6-ardb+git@google.com>

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

Sashiko warns that the new pte_valid_noncont() macro is used in a manner
where the argument (which performs a READ_ONCE() of the descriptor) is
evaluated twice.

Drop the macro that we just added, and move the check into the newly
added users.
