Subject: [PATCH 1/2] export cpu_tlbstate to modules
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2009 21:53:02 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090810185302.GB13924@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1249930169.git.mst@redhat.com>

vhost net module wants to do copy to/from user from a kernel thread,
which needs switch_mm (like what fs/aio has).
export cpu_tlbstate to make this possible
