From 71fdb6bf61bf0692f004f9daf5650392c0cfe300 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 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.
