[PATCH] nommu: get_user_pages(): pin last page on non-page-aligned start

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The noMMU version of get_user_pages() fails to pin the last page
when the start address isn't page-aligned. The patch fixes this in a way
that makes find_extend_vma() congruent to its MMU cousin.
