The only caller is hmm_devmem_pages_create() which already grabs the mutex and does superflous rcu_read_lock/unlock() around the function. This doesn't add anything and just adds to confusion. Remove the RCU protection and open-code the radix tree lookup. If this needs to become more sophisticated in the future, let's add them back when necessary. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Cc: JA(C)rA'me Glisse Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Cc: Linus Torvalds --- Hello, JA(C)rA'me. This came up while auditing percpu_ref users for missing explicit RCU grace periods. HMM doesn't seem to depend on RCU protection at all, so I thought it'd be better to remove it for now. It's only compile tested.
