Subject: [PATCH v4 24/29] x86/entry: Get rid of pt_regs_to_thread_info()
Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2016 14:55:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <90f2d0658c9288e388be613b0fdec4c387c2b53c.1466974736.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1466974736.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1466974736.git.luto@kernel.org>

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

It was a nice optimization while it lasted, but thread_info is moving
and this optimization will no longer work.

Quoting Linus:

    Oh Gods, Andy. That pt_regs_to_thread_info() thing made me want
    to do unspeakable acts on a poor innocent wax figure that looked
    _exactly_ like you.
