I don’t see what’s wrong in SMP, since this entire piece of code should be
running under text_mutex.

I don’t quite understand your proposal. I really don’t want to have any
chance in which the page-tables for the poked address is not preallocated.

It is more complicated than needed, and there are redundant TLB flushes. The
reason I preferred to do it this way, is in order not to use other functions
that take locks during the software page-walk and not to duplicate existing
code. Yet, duplication might be the way to go.

Good point!

Not before jump_label_init. However, I did not manage to get rid of the two
code-patches in text_poke(), since text_poke is used relatively early by
x86_late_time_init(), and at this stage kmem_cache_alloc() - which is needed
to duplicate init_mm - still fails.
