The use of kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page()
where it is feasible.

With kmap_local_page(), the mapping is per thread, CPU local and not
globally visible.

kunmap_local() is different from kunmap(). It takes an address within the
mapped page. From the kdoc:

/**
* kunmap_local - Unmap a page mapped via kmap_local_page().
* @__addr: An address within the page mapped
*
* @__addr can be any address within the mapped page. Commonly it is the
* address return from kmap_local_page(), but it can also include offsets.
*
* Unmapping should be done in the reverse order of the mapping. See
* kmap_local_page() for details.

#define kunmap_local(__addr) \

Got it , Thanks
