From a6fca40f1d7f3e232c9de27c1cebbb9f787fbc4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Suresh Siddha Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2012 17:01:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86, tlb: Switch cr3 in leave_mm() only when needed Currently leave_mm() unconditionally switches the cr3 to swapper_pg_dir. But there is no need to change the cr3, if we already left that mm. intel_idle() for example calls leave_mm() on every deep c-state entry where the CPU flushes the TLB for us. Similarly flush_tlb_all() was also calling leave_mm() whenever the TLB is in LAZY state. Both these paths will be improved with this change.
