ARC700 exception (and intr handling) didn't have auto stack switching thus had to rely on stashing a reg temporarily (to free it up) at a known place in memory, allowing to code up the low level stack switching. This however was not re-entrant in SMP which thus had to repurpose the per-cpu MMU SCRATCH DATA register otherwise used to "cache" the task pdg pointer (vs. reading it from mm struct) The newer HS cores do have auto-stack switching and thus even SMP builds can use the MMU SCRATCH reg as originally intended. This patch fixes the restriction to ARC700 SMP builds only Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
