From 05a759c87255a4eeabfd49aa98bb87ea7310fc64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2014 16:28:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Do not synchronise I and D caches for special ptes commit 71fdb6bf61bf0692f004f9daf5650392c0cfe300 upstream. Special pte mappings are not intended to be executable and do not even have an associated struct page. This patch ensures that we do not call __sync_icache_dcache() on such ptes.
