arch_faults_on_old_pte() relies on the calling context being non-preemptible. CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT turns the PTE lock into a sleepable spinlock, which doesn't disable preemption once acquired, triggering the warning in arch_faults_on_old_pte(). It does however disable migration, ensuring the task remains on the same CPU during the entirety of the critical section, making the read of cpu_has_hw_af() safe and stable. Make arch_faults_on_old_pte() check cant_migrate() instead of preemptible().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
