Subject: [PATCH stable 4.9 04/23] powerpc/rfi-flush: Move the logic to avoid a redo into the debugfs code
Date: Sat,  2 Jun 2018 21:08:49 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180602110908.29773-5-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180602110908.29773-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au>

commit 1e2a9fc7496955faacbbed49461d611b704a7505 upstream.

rfi_flush_enable() includes a check to see if we're already
enabled (or disabled), and in that case does nothing.

But that means calling setup_rfi_flush() a 2nd time doesn't actually
work, which is a bit confusing.

Move that check into the debugfs code, where it really belongs.
