[PATCH v4 6/8] mm: Avoid modifying vmf.address in __collapse_huge_page_swapin()

Wed Jan 20 12:36:10 EST 2021


In preparation for const-ifying the anonymous struct field of
'struct vm_fault', rework __collapse_huge_page_swapin() to avoid
continuously updating vmf.address and instead populate a new
'struct vm_fault' on the stack for each page being processed.
