[PATCHv6 01/10] x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic get_user_page_fast() implementation

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Wed May 24 2017 - 05:56:05 EST


This patch provides all required callbacks required by the generic
get_user_pages_fast() code and switches x86 over - and removes
the platform specific implementation.
