From 48292738d06d7b46d861652ef59bd03be931c2c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Metcalf Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2012 15:34:52 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] arch/tile: don't wait for migrating PTEs in an NMI handler Doing so raises the possibility of self-deadlock if we are waiting for a backtrace for an oprofile or perf interrupt while we are in the middle of migrating our own stack page.
