dev_pagemap related cleanups v4

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

 



Hi Dan, Jérôme and Jason,

below is a series that cleans up the dev_pagemap interface so that
it is more easily usable, which removes the need to wrap it in hmm
and thus allowing to kill a lot of code

Note: this series is on top of Linux 5.2-rc6 and has some minor
conflicts with the hmm tree that are easy to resolve.
