This is the -correct behaviour when the kernel can be executing on the separate irq -stack, because the thread_info will not be at the base of it. - -With this change, register $28 is only switched to it's kernel -conventional usage of the currrent thread info pointer at the point at -which execution enters kernel space. Doing it on every exception was -redundant, but OK without an IRQ stack, but will be erroneous once that -is introduced. - -Signed-off-by: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@imgtec.com> -Reviewed-by: Maciej W.
