Subject: [PATCH] riscv: pageattr: Fixup synchronization problem between init_mm and active_mm

From: Guo Ren <guoren@...ux.alibaba.com>

The machine_kexec() uses set_memory_x to add the executable attribute to the
page table entry of control_code_buffer. It only modifies the init_mm but not
the current->active_mm. The current kexec process won't use init_mm directly,
and it depends on minor_pagefault, which is removed by commit 7d3332be011e4
("riscv: mm: Pre-allocate PGD entries for vmalloc/modules area") of 64BIT. So,
when it met pud mapping on an MMU_SV39 machine, it caused the following:

 kexec_core: Starting new kernel
 Will call new kernel at 00300000 from hart id 0
 FDT image at 747c7000
 Bye...

Yes, Using set_memory_x API after boot has the limitation, and at least we
should synchronize the current->active_mm to fix the problem.
