kmap() has been deprecated in favor of the kmap_local_page() due to high cost, restricted mapping space, the overhead of a global lock for synchronization, and making the process sleep in the absence of free slots. kmap_local_page() is faster than kmap() and offers thread-local and CPU-local mappings, take pagefaults in a local kmap region and preserves preemption by saving the mappings of outgoing tasks and restoring those of the incoming one during a context switch. The mappings are kept thread local in the functions “dmirror_do_read” and “dmirror_do_write” in test_hmm.c Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() and use mempcy_from/to_page() to avoid open coding kmap_local_page() + memcpy() + kunmap_local(). Remove the unused variable “tmp”. Suggested-by: Fabio M.
