From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Subject: mm: introduce page_needs_cow_for_dma() for deciding whether cow We've got quite a few places (pte, pmd, pud) that explicitly checked against whether we should break the cow right now during fork(). It's easier to provide a helper, especially before we work the same thing on hugetlbfs. Since we'll reference is_cow_mapping() in mm.h, move it there too. Actually it suites mm.h more since internal.h is mm/ only, but mm.h is exported to the whole kernel. With that we should expect another patch to use is_cow_mapping() whenever we can across the kernel since we do use it quite a lot but it's always done with raw code against VM_* flags.
