commit 2fd8eb4ad87104c54800ef3cea498c92eb15c78a upstream. It does not matter if the caller of may_use_simd() migrates to another cpu after the call, but it is still important that the kernel_neon_busy percpu instance that is read matches the cpu the task is running on at the time of the read. This means that raw_cpu_read() is not sufficient. kernel_neon_busy may appear true if the caller migrates during the execution of raw_cpu_read() and the next task to be scheduled in on the initial cpu calls kernel_neon_begin(). This patch replaces raw_cpu_read() with this_cpu_read() to protect against this race.

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.
