[PATCH V5 2/7] mm: mlock: Add new mlock system call

Eric B Munson emunson at akamai.com
Fri Jul 24 14:28:40 PDT 2015


With the refactored mlock code, introduce a new system call for mlock.
The new call will allow the user to specify what lock states are being
added.  mlock2 is trivial at the moment, but a follow on patch will add
a new mlock state making it useful.

Changes from V4:
* Drop all architectures except x86[_64] from this patch, MIPS is added
  later in the series.  All others will be left to their maintainers.

Changes from V3:
* Do a (hopefully) complete job of adding the new system calls
