[PATCH 07/13] mm/gup: Fix the lockless PMD access
From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Sat Oct 22 2022 - 07:49:38 EST
On architectures where the PTE/PMD is larger than the native word size
(i386-PAE for example), READ_ONCE() can do the wrong thing. Use
pmdp_get_lockless() just like we use ptep_get_lockless().
