[PATCH v16 15/16] vfio/type1, arm64: untag user pointers in vaddr_get_pfn

2019-06-03 Thread Andrey Konovalov
This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than 0x00) as syscall arguments. vaddr_get_pfn() uses provided user pointers for vma lookups, which can only by done with untagged pointers. Untag
