[PATCH 10/10] Deprecate useless bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Remove the "temporary debugging check" which has managed to live for quite
some time, and is clearly unneeded.  The mm can never be live at this point,
so clearly checking the LDT in the mm->context is redundant as well.
