Catalin has posted a new version today.

So we have the following patches in this series:

1. arm64: untag user pointers in access_ok and __uaccess_mask_ptr
2. arm64: Introduce prctl() options to control the tagged user addresses ABI
3. lib: untag user pointers in strn*_user
4. mm: untag user pointers passed to memory syscalls
5. mm: untag user pointers in mm/gup.c
6. mm: untag user pointers in get_vaddr_frames
7. fs/namespace: untag user pointers in copy_mount_options
8. userfaultfd: untag user pointers
9. drm/amdgpu: untag user pointers
10. drm/radeon: untag user pointers in radeon_gem_userptr_ioctl
11. IB/mlx4: untag user pointers in mlx4_get_umem_mr
12. media/v4l2-core: untag user pointers in videobuf_dma_contig_user_get
13. tee/shm: untag user pointers in tee_shm_register
14. vfio/type1: untag user pointers in vaddr_get_pfn
15. selftests, arm64: add a selftest for passing tagged pointers to kernel

1, 2 and 15 have been picked by Will.

11 has been picked up by Jason.

9, 10, 12, 13 and 14 have acks from their subsystem maintainers.

3 touches generic lib code, I'm not sure if there's a dedicated
maintainer for that.

The ones that are left are the mm ones: 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

Andrew, could you take a look and give your Acked-by or pick them up directly?
