[PATCH v11 15/26] mm: introduce __lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable

From: Laurent Dufour
Date: Thu May 17 2018 - 06:13:41 EST


The speculative page fault handler which is run without holding the
mmap_sem is calling lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable() but the vm_flags
is not guaranteed to remain constant.
Introducing __lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable() which has the vma flags
value parameter instead of the vma pointer.
