    [PATCH] mm: arch do_page_fault() vs in_atomic() · 6edaf68a
    Peter Zijlstra authored
    In light of the recent pagefault and filemap_copy_from_user work I've gone
    through all the arch pagefault handlers to make sure the inc_preempt_count()
    'feature' works as expected.
    
    Several sections of code (including the new filemap_copy_from_user) rely on
    the fact that faults do not take locks under increased preempt count.
