From 5f76eea88dcbe75506d98e0207b9e3bd47941f2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Hildenbrand Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 17:52:18 +0200 Subject: sched/preempt, powerpc: Disable preemption in enable_kernel_altivec() explicitly enable_kernel_altivec() has to be called with disabled preemption. Let's make this explicit, to prepare for pagefault_disable() not touching preemption anymore.
