Subject: [PATCH v3-resend 01/11] asm-generic: uaccess s/might_sleep/might_fault/
Date: Sun, 26 May 2013 17:30:36 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369577426-26721-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1369575487-26176-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com>

The only reason uaccess routines might sleep
is if they fault. Make this explicit.
