It looks like the following commits should be backported to all stable
branches:
commit 6d037de90a1fd7b4879b48d4dd5c4839b271be98
Author: Ralf Baechle <ra
lf@linux-mips.org>
Date: Fri Jul 1 15:01:01 2016 +0200
MIPS: Fix possible corruption of cache mode by mprotect.
commit 88d02a2ba6c52350f9a73ff1b01a5be839c3ca17
Author: David Daney [off-list ref]
Date: Thu Jun 16 15:50:31 2016 -0700
MIPS: Fix page table corruption on THP permission changes.
The second seems to depend on the first, and the first seems to depend on:
commit 77a5c59332aa75e66f0d95f9eeb69baf3c68970d
Author: Steven J. Hill [off-list ref]
Date: Thu Nov 13 09:52:01 2014 -0600
MIPS: Cosmetic cleanups of page table headers.
Does it make sense to pick all of these for stable? Are
there additional dependencies?
