32-bit sparc uses swap instruction to implement set_pte(). It called using GCC inline assembler. But it misses the "memory" clobber to indicate that pte value will be updated in memory. As result GCC doesn't know that it cannot postpone pte pointer dereference which occurs before set_pte() to post-set_pte() time. It leads to real-world bugs -- [1]. In this situation we have code: ptent = ptep_modify_prot_start(mm, addr, pte); ptent = pte_modify(ptent, newprot); ... ptep_modify_prot_commit(mm, addr, pte, ptent); ptep_modify_prot_start() in sparc case is just 'pte' dereference plus pte_clear(). pte_clear() calls broken set_pte(). GCC thinks it's valid to dereference 'pte' again on pte_modify() and gets cleared pte. ptep_modify_prot_commit() puts 'pteent' with pfn==0 back to page table, which eventually leads to the crash.
