Subject: [PATCH 04/12] mm: arch: make in_gate_area take an mm_struct instead of a task_struct
Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2011 15:49:16 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300045764-24168-5-git-send-email-wilsons@start.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1300045764-24168-1-git-send-email-wilsons@start.ca>
Morally, the question of whether an address lies in a gate vma should be asked
with respect to an mm, not a particular task. Moreover, dropping the dependency
on task_struct will help make existing and future operations on mm's more
flexible and convenient.
