This patch introduces support for event suppression. This is done by

boolean hint or event index interface in the areas.

R/W parameter doesn't make sense to most architectures and the comment in x86
says WRITE is a superset of READ, is it possible to converge them here?

  * @type: Type of access: %VERIFY_READ or %VERIFY_WRITE.  Note that
  *        %VERIFY_WRITE is a superset of %VERIFY_READ - if it is safe
  *        to write to a block, it is always safe to read from it.
  * @addr: User space pointer to start of block to check
  * @size: Size of block to check

  * Context: User context only. This function may sleep if pagefaults are

  * Checks if a pointer to a block of memory in user space is valid.
  *
  * Returns true (nonzero) if the memory block may be valid, false (zero)
  * if it is definitely invalid.

  * Note that, depending on architecture, this function probably just
  * checks that the pointer is in the user space range - after calling
  * this function, memory access functions may still return -EFAULT.

Thanks,

Well, this is a question that beyond the scope of this patch.

My understanding is we should keep it unless type was meaningless on all archs.

Thanks
