[PATCH v2 3/7] ARM: mm: Cleanup access_error()

Wed Jun 2 00:02:42 PDT 2021


Now the write fault check in do_page_fault() and access_error() twice,
we can cleanup access_error(), and make the fault check and vma flags set
into do_page_fault() directly, then pass the vma flags to __do_page_fault.

No functional change.
