From 83bee792d7cb20d250be57e99d97f8cc83d9b4d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jayachandran C Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2013 06:30:01 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Allow kernel to use coprocessor 2 Kernel threads should be able to use COP2 if the platform needs it. Do not call die_if_kernel() for a coprocessor unusable exception if the exception due to COP2 usage. Instead, the default notifier for COP2 exceptions is updated to call die_if_kernel.
