[PATCH v2 04/11] mm/hmm: improve and rename hmm_vma_get_pfns() to hmm_range_snapshot() v2

2019-03-25T14:41:05Z

From: Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com>

Rename for consistency between code, comments and documentation. Also
improves the comments on all the possible returns values. Improve the
function by returning the number of populated entries in pfns array.

Changes since v1:
- updated documentation
- reformated some comments
