Subject: [PATCH] x86: replace mm_context_t.ia32_compat by MMF_COMPAT
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2011 20:41:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110928184149.GA31060@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110928155655.GB10550@redhat.com>

Kill mm_context_t.ia32_compat in favour of arch-independent MMF_COMPAT
flag. This saves a word in mm_struct, and the new flag can be probably
use outside of arch/x86/.

Also, remove the "if (current->mm)" check from set_personality_*().
This can only be called after exec_mmap() installs the new mm != NULL.
