[PATCH 4.17 072/220] arm64: kpti: Use early_param for kpti= command-line option
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jul 01 2018 - 12:40:19 EST
4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>
commit b5b7dd647f2d21b93f734ce890671cd908e69b0a upstream.
We inspect __kpti_forced early on as part of the cpufeature enable
callback which remaps the swapper page table using non-global entries.
Ensure that __kpti_forced has been updated to reflect the kpti=
command-line option before we start using it.
Fixes: ea1e3de85e94 ("arm64: entry: Add fake CPU feature for unmapping the kernel at EL0")
