kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in ecryptfs_write(). kmap_atomic() is implemented like kmap_local_page() which also disables page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels). The code within the mapping/un-mapping in ecryptfs_write() does not depend on the above-mentioned side effects so that a mere replacement of the old API with the new one is all that is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly call pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()). Tested in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with HIGHMEM64GB enabled. Suggested-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Fabio M.
