Subject: [PATCH v5 6/8] x86/mm/tlb: Do not make is_lazy dirty for no reason
Date: Tue,  9 Feb 2021 14:16:51 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210209221653.614098-7-namit@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210209221653.614098-1-namit@vmware.com>

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Blindly writing to is_lazy for no reason, when the written value is
identical to the old value, makes the cacheline dirty for no reason.
Avoid making such writes to prevent cache coherency traffic for no
reason.
