[PATCH 1/2] mm/debug_vm_pgtable: Drop protection_map[] usage

From: Anshuman Khandual
Date: Sun Apr 03 2022 - 23:18:39 EST


Although protection_map[] contains the platform defined page protection map
for a given vm_flags combination, vm_get_page_prot() is the right interface
to use. This will also reduce dependency on protection_map[] which is going
to be dropped off completely later on.
