From 50d2a4223bb875d1e3a7ee97d40dd03bf31ce1b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 17:17:22 +0000 Subject: powerpc: Copy back TIF flags on return from softirq stack We already did it for hard IRQs but it looks like we forgot to do it for softirqs. Without this, we would lose flags such as TIF_NEED_RESCHED set using current_thread_info() by something running of a softirq.
