[PATCH V8 40/44] memremap_pages: Add pgmap_protection_flag_invalid()

From: ira . weiny
Date: Thu Jan 27 2022 - 12:57:22 EST


From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

Some systems may be using pmem in ways that are known to be incompatible
with the PKS implementation. One such example is the use of kmap() to
create 'global' mappings.

Rather than only reporting the invalid access on fault, provide a call
to flag those uses immediately. This allows for a much better splat for
debugging to occur.

This is also nice because even if no invalid access' actually occurs,
the invalid mapping can be fixed with kmap_local_page() rather than
having to look for a different solution.

Define pgmap_protection_flag_invalid() and have it follow the policy set
by pks_fault_mode.
