If set_thread_tidr() is called twice for same task_struct then it will
allocate a new tidr value to it leaving the previous value still
dangling in the vas_thread_ida table.
To fix this the patch changes set_thread_tidr() to check if a tidr
value is already assigned to the task_struct and if yes then returns
zero.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
