[PATCH 4/4] mm/gup: Assert that the mmap lock is held in __get_user_pages()
From: Jann Horn
Date: Tue Sep 29 2020 - 21:20:09 EST
After having cleaned up all GUP callers (except for the atomisp staging
driver, which currently gets mmap locking completely wrong [1]) to always
ensure that they hold the mmap lock when calling into GUP (unless the mm is
not yet globally visible), add an assertion to make sure it stays that way
going forward.
