[PATCH v1 10/16] mm/memory: use __zap_vma_range() in zap_vma_for_reaping()
From: David Hildenbrand (Arm)
Date: Fri Feb 27 2026 - 15:21:59 EST
Let's call __zap_vma_range() instead of unmap_page_range() to prepare
for further cleanups.
To keep the existing behavior, whereby we do not call uprobe_munmap()
which could block, add a new "reaping" member to zap_details and use it.
Likely we should handle the possible blocking in uprobe_munmap()
differently, but for now keep it unchanged.
