[PATCH] mm/page_fault: Remove reduntant check for write access

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

 



Flags argument has been copied into vmf.flags and it does not
seem to have changed in between. Hence a single write access
check can be used for both PUD and PMD.
