Its filename was alsa-pcm-use-vm_insert_page-to-map-pcm-status-page.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" Subject: ALSA: pcm: use vm_insert_page() to map PCM status page Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 15:57:33 +0100 There's no need to keep a fault handler around for this, instead map on mmap. While we're here, rename area to vma to be consistent. This correctly makes the mapping a mixed map mapping. This works towards establishing the invariant that only PFN mapped or mixed map mappings may clear the VM_MAYWRITE flag. The status page mapping clears VM_MAYWRITE, so it must be kernel-owned; the control page mapping remains writable and is left fault-based. The assumption is made that the struct pcm_mmap_status structure is at most a page in size, which is asserted as a build bug. This is safe to assume, as the size of the structure is 56 bytes at most.
