Subject: [PATCH -V10 13/15] powerpc: disable assert_pte_locked for collapse_huge_page
Date: Wed,  5 Jun 2013 20:58:37 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370446119-8837-14-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1370446119-8837-1-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

With THP we set pmd to none, before we do pte_clear. Hence we can't
walk page table to get the pte lock ptr and verify whether it is locked.
THP do take pte lock before calling pte_clear. So we don't change the locking
rules here. It is that we can't use page table walking to check whether
pte locks are held with THP.
