From cb4922496ae40a775a1b17025eaa1060e8991253 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Shi <yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com> Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2018 15:07:18 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: unmap VM_PFNMAP mappings with optimized path When unmapping VM_PFNMAP mappings, vm flags need to be updated. Since the vmas have been detached, so it sounds safe to update vm flags with read mmap_sem.
