From 0005d20b2ff1e501e186b3b3bc587085ac305fdc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kirill A. Shutemov Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2017 18:26:51 +0300 Subject: mm/gup: Move page table entry dereference into helper function This is a preparation patch for the transition of x86 to the generic GUP_fast() implementation. On x86 PAE, page table entry is larger than sizeof(long) and we would need to provide a helper that can read the entry atomically. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
