From f307ab6dcea03f9d8e4d70508fd7d1ca57cfa7f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Stoakes Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 01:20:20 +0100 Subject: mm: replace access_process_vm() write parameter with gup_flags This removes the 'write' argument from access_process_vm() and replaces it with 'gup_flags' as use of this function previously silently implied FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag. We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
