[PATCH v2 2/4] mm: fail get_vaddr_frames() for filesystem-dax mappings

From: Dan Williams
Date: Tue Nov 14 2017 - 15:11:15 EST


Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is
not safe to allow V4L2, Exynos, and other frame vector users to create
long standing / irrevocable memory registrations against filesytem-dax
vmas.
