The r2_emul_return field in struct thread_info was used in order to take
an alternate codepath when returning to userland, which (besides not
implementing certain features) effectively used the eretnc instruction
in place of eret. The difference is that eretnc doesn't clear LLBit, and
therefore doesn't cause a linked load & store sequence to fail due to
emulation like eret would.
The reason eret would usually be used to clear LLBit is so that after
context switching we ensure that a load performed by one task doesn't
influence another task. However commit

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.
