We rely on an atomic swizzling of TTBR1 when transitioning from the entry trampoline to the kernel proper on an exception. We can't rely on this atomicity in the face of Falkor erratum #E1003, so on affected cores we can issue a TLB invalidation to invalidate the walk cache prior to jumping into the kernel. There is still the possibility of a TLB conflict here due to conflicting walk cache entries prior to the invalidation, but this doesn't appear to be the case on these CPUs in practice.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
