Mikey, Thanks. There is overlap between the two patches. I will send a patch on top of Christophe's for the interfaces to assign/clear the TIDR value and clear the thread->tidr during arch_dup_task_struct(). I will also drop the CONFIG_VAS check since its not only for VAS. Christophe, can you let me know of any other comments on this patch?
