This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled arm64: Use the reserved TTBR0 if context switching to the init_mm to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt10. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 69fddf656ebf1638f3591c26e8b298715587eb7b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 15:06:50 +0000 Subject: arm64: Use the reserved TTBR0 if context switching to the init_mm commit e53f21bce4d35a93b23d8fa1a840860f6c74f59e upstream. The idle_task_exit() function may call switch_mm() with next == &init_mm. On arm64, init_mm.pgd cannot be used for user mappings, so this patch simply sets the reserved TTBR0.
