Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] livepatch: Skip task_call_func() for current task
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2023 14:22:54 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4b92e793462d532a05f03767151fa29db3e68e13.1676672328.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1676672328.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>

The current task doesn't need the scheduler's protection to unwind its
own stack.
