[PATCH] ARM: 2837/2: Re: ARM: Make NWFPE preempt safe
Patch from Richard Purdie NWFPE used global variables which meant it wasn't safe for use with preemptive kernels. This patch removes them and communicates the information between functions in a preempt safe manner. Generation of some exceptions was broken and this has also been corrected. Tests with glibc's maths test suite show no change in the results before/after this patch. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
