[PATCH v2 4/6] mm, arm64: untag user addresses in mm/gup.c

From: Andrey Konovalov <hidden>
Date: 2018-05-03 14:15:42
Also in: linux-doc, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - gup (get user pages), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

mm/gup.c provides a kernel interface that accepts user addresses and
manipulates user pages directly (for example get_user_pages, that is used
by the futex syscall). Here we also need to handle the case of tagged user
pointers.

Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user pointers for vma lookup.
