Subject: [patch 5/7] x86, cpa: fix taking the pgd_lock with interrupts off
Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2008 13:30:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080911204151.010960000@linux-os.sc.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080911203048.929515000@linux-os.sc.intel.com

[-- Attachment #1: fix_pageattr_irqlock.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2933 bytes --]

Interrupt context no longer does the large page split, so no need to use
spin_lock_irqsave()
