Subject[PATCH 3.14 34/38] arm64: Use the reserved TTBR0 if context switching to the init_mm
Date
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

commit e53f21bce4d35a93b23d8fa1a840860f6c74f59e upstream.

The idle_task_exit() function may call switch_mm() with next ==
&init_mm. On arm64, init_mm.pgd cannot be used for user mappings, so
this patch simply sets the reserved TTBR0.
