From ab424c8eb71ee9ea4ba798faaeaf62e84048cb9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Stoakes Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 01:20:12 +0100 Subject: mm: remove write/force parameters from __get_user_pages_unlocked() commit d4944b0ecec0af882483fe44b66729316e575208 upstream. This removes the redundant 'write' and 'force' parameters from __get_user_pages_unlocked() to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
