> Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc/hibernate: PPC64 fix user threads access
> to kernel space
>
> If PID is used in the TLB, after hibernation resume, the user
> threads will access to kernel space.
>
> We must restore PID register, because TLB will use PID. The
> hibernation suspend flow is trapped from user space to kernel
> space, the PID register is user thread pid.
>
> The hibernation resume is begin in kernel start flow, the PID
> alway 0. After the kernel thread back to user thread, there is
> not have context switch and the pid can not update, because the
> kernel thread is trapped form user space. So if we did't restore
> PID the user space of thread will be addressing in the kernel
> space.

> There are two ways to restore PID:
> 1/ In swsusp_arch_suspend/swsusp_arch_resume, save/resotre PID register.
> 2/ Form restore_processor_state to restore. this function will
> do context switch.
> switch_mmu_context(current->active_mm, current->active_mm)
>
> PPC32 Using the second method. For consistency reason, PPC64 using
> the same way.
