Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 6/6] Revert "arm64/mm: Permit lazy_mmu_mode to be nested"
Date: Fri, 30 May 2025 15:04:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250530140446.2387131-7-ryan.roberts@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250530140446.2387131-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com>
Commit 491344301b25 ("arm64/mm: Permit lazy_mmu_mode to be nested") made
the arm64 implementation of lazy_mmu_mode tolerant to nesting. But
subsequent commits have fixed the core code to ensure that lazy_mmu_mode
never gets nested (as originally intended). Therefore we can revert this
commit and reinstate the VM_WARN() if nesting is detected in future.
