Subject: [PATCH] x86/vm86/32: Remove VM86_SCREEN_BITMAP support
Date: Fri,  8 Jan 2021 10:55:05 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3d34069ab2d249d866ea1d18a47e4170dbfb5982.1610132102.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)

The implementation was rather buggy.  It unconditionally marked PTEs
read-only, even for VM_SHARED mappings.  I'm not sure whether this is
actually a problem, but it certainly seems unwise.  More importantly, it
released the mmap lock before flushing the TLB, which could allow a racing
CoW operation to falsely believe that the underlying memory was not
writable.

I can't find any users at all of this mechanism, so just remove it.
