From 532fc50f78c39fc56c1256ba1b11ec7d45adf214 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Elwell Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2024 10:06:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmscan: Maintain TLB coherency in LRU code As a workaround (and possibly a fix) for CPU spins observed on BCM2837, use ptep_clear_flush_young instead of ptep_test_and_clear_young inside lru_gen_look_around in order to expose PTE changes to the MMU. Note that on architectures that don't require an explicit flush, ptep_clear_flush_young just calls ptep_test_and_clear_young.
