[PATCH v2 1/3] kernel/events/uprobes: pass VMA instead of MM to remove_breakpoint()

From: David Hildenbrand <hidden>
Date: 2025-03-18 22:15:04
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-mm, linux-perf-users, lkml
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest, uprobes · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds, Masami Hiramatsu, Oleg Nesterov

... and remove the "MM" argument from install_breakpoint(), because it
can easily be derived from the VMA.
