[PATCH v8 4/8] mm, arm64: untag user addresses in mm/gup.c

From: Andrey Konovalov
Date: Thu Nov 08 2018 - 09:36:51 EST


mm/gup.c provides a kernel interface that accepts user addresses and
manipulates user pages directly (for example get_user_pages, that is used
by the futex syscall). Since a user can provided tagged addresses, we need
to handle such case.

Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user addresses for vma lookup.
