[PATCH RFC V2 15/17] nvdimm/pmem: Stray write protection for pmem->virt_addr

From: ira . weiny
Date: Fri Jul 17 2020 - 03:21:20 EST


From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

The pmem driver uses a cached virtual address to access its memory
directly. Because the nvdimm driver is well aware of the special
protections it has mapped memory with, we call dev_access_[en|dis]able()
around the direct pmem->virt_addr (pmem_addr) usage instead of the
unnecessary overhead of trying to get a page to kmap.
