Subject: [RFC PATCH V5 4/6] arm: mm: Enable RCU fast_gup
Date: Tue,  6 May 2014 16:30:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1399390209-1756-5-git-send-email-steve.capper@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1399390209-1756-1-git-send-email-steve.capper@linaro.org>

Activate the RCU fast_gup for ARM. We also need to force THP splits to
broadcast an IPI s.t. we block in the fast_gup page walker. As THP
splits are comparatively rare, this should not lead to a noticeable
performance degradation.
