Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] mm/huge_memory: remove stale NUMA hinting comment from follow_trans_huge_pmd()
Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2023 14:48:42 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230801124844.278698-7-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230801124844.278698-1-david@redhat.com>
That comment for pmd_protnone() was added in commit 2b4847e73004
("mm: numa: serialise parallel get_user_page against THP migration"), which
noted:
THP does not unmap pages due to a lack of support for migration
entries at a PMD level. This allows races with get_user_pages
Nowadays, we do have PMD migration entries, so the comment no longer
applies. Let's drop it.
