From 9b5cf48b06a52c04b85c88642c3b620db8e1d592 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2008 01:17:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86: revert "x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappings" Revert: commit 8be8f54bae3453588011cad06363813a5293af53 Author: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sat Feb 23 20:43:21 2008 +0100 x86: CPA: avoid split of alias mappings because it clearly mishandles the case when __change_page_attr(), called from __change_page_attr_set_clr(), changes cpa->processed to 1 and cpa_process_alias(cpa) is executed right after that. This crashes my x86-64 test box early in the boot process (ref. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10140#c4). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
