mm/memory.c: add vm_insert_pages()
Add the ability to insert multiple pages at once to a user VM with lower PTE spinlock operations. The intention of this patch-set is to reduce atomic ops for tcp zerocopy receives, which normally hits the same spinlock multiple times consecutively. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: pte_alloc() no longer takes the `addr' argument] [arjunroy@google.com: add missing page_count() check to vm_insert_pages()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200214005929.104481-1-arjunroy.kdev@gmail.com [arjunroy@google.com: vm_insert_pages() checks if pte_index defined] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200228054714.204424-2-arjunroy.kdev@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arjun Roy <arjunroy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@ziepe.ca> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200128025958.43490-2-arjunroy.kdev@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
