Subject: [PATCH 4/4] mm/gup: remove get_user_pages_locked()
Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2022 21:17:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220131051752.447699-5-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220131051752.447699-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>

Unraveling the rat's nest set of APIs in mm/gup.c a bit more.
get_user_pages_locked() was not helping at all, so remove it.

Also, lookup_node() has only a single caller, but it is still worth
having a clearer locking policy there. Changing it so that the caller
both takes and releases the mmap_lock, thus leaving lookup_node() with
the sole job of translating a virtual address into a numa node ID.
