From 094804c5a132f04c12dd4902ee15c64362e5c1af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2005 01:03:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] x86_64: Fix change_page_attr cache flushing Noticed by Terence Ripperda Undo wrong change in global_flush_tlb. We need to flush the caches in all cases, not just when pages were reverted. This was a bogus optimization added earlier, but it was wrong.
