Subject: [PATCH 5/5] mm/gup: Take mmap_sem in get_dump_page()
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2020 05:27:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200428032745.133556-6-jannh@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200428032745.133556-1-jannh@google.com>

Properly take the mmap_sem before calling into the GUP code from
get_dump_page(); and play nice, allowing __get_user_pages_locked() to drop
the mmap_sem if it has to sleep.

This requires adjusting the check in __get_user_pages_locked() to be
slightly less strict: While `vmas != NULL` is normally incompatible with
the lock-dropping retry logic, it's fine if we only want a single page,
because then retries can only happen when we haven't grabbed any pages yet.
