Commit 38fd94b0275c ("arm64: Work around Falkor erratum 1003") tried to
work around a hardware erratum, but actually caused a system crash of
its own during switch_mm:
cpu_do_switch_mm+0x20/0x40
efi_virtmap_load+0x34/0x40
virt_efi_get_next_variable+0x64/0xc8
efivar_init+0x8c/0x348
efisubsys_init+0xd4/0x270
do_one_initcall+0x80/0x110
kernel_init_freeable+0x19c/0x240
kernel_init+0x10/0x100
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
In cpu_do_switch_mm, x1 contains the mm_struct pointer, which needs to
be preserved by the pre_ttbr0_update_workaround macro rather than passed
as a temporary.
This patch clobbers x2 and x3 instead, keeping the mm_struct intact
after the workaround has run.

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.
