Aneesh Kumar K.V 22259a6e80 powerpc/mm/cxl: Add barrier when setting mm cpumask
We need to add memory barrier so that the page table walk doesn't happen
before the cpumask is set and made visible to the other cpus. We need
to use a sync here instead of lwsync because lwsync is not sufficient for
store/load ordering.

We also need to add an if (mm) check so that we do the right thing when called
with a kernel context. For kernel context, we have mm = NULL. W.r.t kernel
address we can skip setting the mm cpumask.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
