ARM: vfp: ensure preemption is disabled when enabling VFP access
The vfp_enable function enables access to the VFP co-processor register space (cp10 and cp11) on the current CPU and must be called with preemption disabled. Unfortunately, the vfp_init late initcall does not disable preemption and can lead to an oops during boot if thread migration occurs at the wrong time and we end up attempting to access the FPSID on a CPU with VFP access disabled. This patch fixes the initcall to call vfp_enable from a non-preemptible context on each CPU and adds a BUG_ON(preemptible) to ensure that any similar problems are easily spotted in the future. originally from http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git;a=commit;h=468c963e0210bf8108b17cf75066f25f39cabb56 Change-Id: I26fff8abe4c18bd3291613f70d0228aa2313811a Reported-by: Hyungwoo Yang <hwoo.yang@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Hyungwoo Yang <hyungwooy@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Reviewed-on: http://git-master/r/102315 GVS: Gerrit_Virtual_Submit Reviewed-by: Thomas Cherry <tcherry@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Yu-Huan Hsu <yhsu@nvidia.com>
