The quilt patch titled Subject: sparc/mm: disable preemption in lazy mmu mode has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sparc-mm-disable-preemption-in-lazy-mmu-mode.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryan Roberts ryan.roberts@arm.com Subject: sparc/mm: disable preemption in lazy mmu mode Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 14:15:37 +0000

Since commit 38e0edb15bd0 ("mm/apply_to_range: call pte function with lazy updates") it's been possible for arch_[enter|leave]_lazy_mmu_mode() to be called without holding a page table lock (for the kernel mappings case), and therefore it is possible that preemption may occur while in the lazy mmu mode. The Sparc lazy mmu implementation is not robust to preemption since it stores the lazy mode state in a per-cpu structure and does not attempt to manage that state on task switch.

Powerpc had the same issue and fixed it by explicitly disabling preemption in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and re-enabling in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). See commit b9ef323ea168 ("powerpc/64s: Disable preemption in hash lazy mmu mode").

Given Sparc's lazy mmu mode is based on powerpc's, let's fix it in the same way here.
