[PATCH v5 06/12] mm/gup: require FOLL_GET for get_user_pages_fast()

From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>
Date: 2020-02-07 03:38:26
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-kselftest, linux-mm, linux-rdma, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - gup (get user pages), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

Internal to mm/gup.c, require that get_user_pages_fast()
and __get_user_pages_fast() identify themselves, by setting
FOLL_GET. This is required in order to be able to make decisions
based on "FOLL_PIN, or FOLL_GET, or both or neither are set", in
upcoming patches.
