From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Resending these as I had only 1 minor comment which I believe we have covered in this series. I was anticipating these going through the mm tree as they depend on a cleanup patch there and the IB changes are very minor. But they could just as well go through the IB tree. NOTE: This series depends on my clean up patch to remove the write parameter from gup_fast_permitted()[1] HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to it performance advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping of FS DAX pages. Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also shown interest in using this functionality.[2] In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call.

Is there anything I need to do on this series or does anyone have any objections to it going into 5.1? And if so who's tree is it going to go through? Thanks, Ira
