Subject: [PATCH 176/208] x86/alternatives, x86/fpu: Add 'alternatives_patched' debug flag and use it in xsave_state()
Date: Tue,  5 May 2015 19:58:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430848712-28064-16-git-send-email-mingo@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1430848712-28064-1-git-send-email-mingo@kernel.org>

We'd like to use xsave_state() earlier, but its SYSTEM_BOOTING check
is too imprecise.

The real condition that xsave_state() would like to check is whether
alternative XSAVE instructions were patched into the kernel image
already.

Add such a (read-mostly) debug flag and use it in xsave_state().
