Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: fix function name typo in pmd_read_atomic() comment
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2019 09:44:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190925014453.20236-1-richardw.yang@linux.intel.com> (raw)

The function involved should be pte_offset_map_lock and we never have
function pmd_offset_map_lock defined.

Fixes: 26c191788f18 ("mm: pmd_read_atomic: fix 32bit PAE pmd walk vs pmd_populate SMP race conditio")

Signed-off-by: Wei Yang <richardw.yang@linux.intel.com>

Hope my understanding is correct.
