[PATCH 05/10] mm: replace get_vaddr_frames() write/force parameters with gup_flags

Lorenzo Stoakes lstoakes at gmail.com
Wed Oct 12 17:20:15 PDT 2016


This patch removes the write and force parameters from get_vaddr_frames() and
replaces them with a gup_flags parameter to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence
bugs) within the mm subsystem.
