[PATCH 07/10] mm: replace get_user_pages_remote() write/force parameters with gup_flags

2016-10-12 Thread Lorenzo Stoakes
This patch removes the write and force parameters from get_user_pages_remote() 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. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo
