powerpc/mm: Use read barrier when creating real_pte On ppc64 we support 4K hash pte with 64K page size. That requires us to track the hash pte slot information on a per 4k basis. We do that by storing the slot details in the second half of pte page. The pte bit _PAGE_COMBO is used to indicate whether the second half need to be looked while building real_pte. We need to use read memory barrier while doing that so that load of hidx is not reordered w.r.t _PAGE_COMBO check. On the store side we already do a lwsync in __hash_page_4K CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
