Subject: [PATCH NOTFORMERGE 4/5] mm/madvise: employ mmget_still_valid for write lock
Date: Sun, 16 Jun 2019 10:58:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190616085835.953-5-oleksandr@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190616085835.953-1-oleksandr@redhat.com>

Do the very same trick as we already do since 04f5866e41fb. KSM hints
will require locking mmap_sem for write since they modify vm_flags, so
for remote KSM hinting this additional check is needed.
