[PATCH 08/10] mm: replace __access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags

2016-10-12 Thread Lorenzo Stoakes
This patch removes the write parameter from __access_remote_vm() and replaces it with a gup_flags parameter as use of this function previously _implied_ FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag. We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising

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