From 2ca2ebfd952d0338a0972c1f1f56b9b0c1a3b09c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Daney Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2009 15:47:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Don't corrupt page tables on vmalloc fault. The code after the vmalloc_fault: label in do_page_fault() modifies user page tables, this is not correct for 64-bit kernels. For 64-bit kernels we should go straight to the no_context handler skipping vmalloc_fault.
