H A D | init.c | 985c30ef Mon Oct 15 10:30:24 CDT 2007 Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> [MIPS] Fix aliasing bug in copy_user_highpage, take 2.
Turns out b868868ae0f7272228c95cc760338ffe35bb739d wasn't quite right. When called for a page that isn't marked dirty it would artificially create an alias instead of doing the obvious thing and access the page via KSEG0.
The same issue also exists in copy_to_user_page and copy_from_user_page which was causing the machine to die under rare circumstances for example when running ps if the BUG_ON() assertion added by the earlier fix was getting triggered.
