H A D | mmu_context.h | 22c4bd9f Fri Oct 24 17:58:09 CDT 2014 Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> x86: Add a comment clarifying LDT context switching
The code is correct, but only for a rather subtle reason. This confused me for quite a while when I read switch_mm, so clarify the code to avoid confusing other people, too.
TBH, I wouldn't be surprised if this code was only correct by accident.
