[PATCH v1 0/3] mm: follow_pte() improvements and acrn follow_pte() fixes

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Wed Apr 10 2024 - 11:57:26 EST


Patch #1 fixes a bunch of issues I spotted in the acrn driver. It compiles,
that's all I know. I'll appreciate some review and testing from acrn
folks.

Patch #2+#3 improve follow_pte(), passing a VMA instead of the MM, adding
more sanity checks, and improving the documentation. Gave it a quick
test on x86-64 using VM_PAT that ends up using follow_pte().

Not CCing all s390x and x86 maintainers (but lists), to reduce noise.

As this depends on other stuff in mm-unstable, this should likely go via
the MM tree.
