[PATCH 3.16 226/328] x86/mm: Use WRITE_ONCE() when setting PTEs

2018-12-09 Thread Ben Hutchings
3.16.62-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. -- From: Nadav Amit commit 9bc4f28af75a91aea0ae383f50b0a430c4509303 upstream. When page-table entries are set, the compiler might optimize their assignment by using multiple instructions to set the PTE
