Subject: [ARM] Do not call flush_tlb_kernel_range() with IRQs disabled.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.15-rc3~3^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5edf71ae129167ac276ebac18b25ccc7bec6ac3e;p=pandora-kernel.git

[ARM] Do not call flush_tlb_kernel_range() with IRQs disabled.

We must not call TLB maintainence operations with interrupts disabled,
otherwise we risk a lockup in the SMP IPI code.

This means that consistent_free() can not be called from a context with
IRQs disabled.  In addition, we must not hold the lock in consistent_free
when we call flush_tlb_kernel_range().  However, we must continue to
prevent consistent_alloc() from re-using the memory region until we've
finished tearing down the mapping and dealing with the TLB.

Therefore, leave the vm_region entry in the list, but mark it inactive
before dropping the lock and starting the tear-down process.  After the
mapping has been torn down, re-acquire the lock and remove the entry
from the list.
