Subject: [PATCH 4.18 023/228] s390/mm: correct allocate_pgste proc_handler callback
4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Vasily Gorbik <gor@...ux.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit 5bedf8aa03c28cb8dc98bdd32a41b66d8f7d3eaa ]
Since proc_dointvec does not perform value range control,
proc_dointvec_minmax should be used to limit value range, which is
clearly intended here, as the internal representation of the value:
unsigned int alloc_pgste:1;
In fact it currently works, since we have
mm->context.alloc_pgste = page_table_allocate_pgste || ...
... since commit 23fefe119ceb5 ("s390/kvm: avoid global config of vm.alloc_pgste=1")
Before that it was
mm->context.alloc_pgste = page_table_allocate_pgste;
which was broken. That was introduced with commit 0b46e0a3ec0d7 ("s390/kvm:
remove delayed reallocation of page tables for KVM").
Fixes: 0b46e0a3ec0d7 ("s390/kvm: remove delayed reallocation of page tables for KVM")
