I think I'll keep FOLL_FOREIGN in this patch because it fits in well with the other things converted to get_user_pages_foreign(). > BTW doesn't that other patch miss passing FOLL_FOREIGN from > get_user_pages_foreign() or something?

I'll include it in future versions of this patch. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
