The get_user_pages_remote() functionality was replaced by HMM: - No need anymore to allocate and free memory to hold its output per call. - No need anymore to use the put_page() to unpin the pages. - The logic to detect contiguous pages is done based on the returned order from HMM, no need to run per page, and evaluate. Moving to use the HMM enables to reduce page faults in the system by using the snapshot mode. This mode allows existing pages in the CPU to become presented to the device without faulting. This non-faulting mode may be used explicitly by an application with some new option of advice MR (i.e. PREFETCH_NO_FAULT) and is used upon ODP MR registration internally as part of initiating the device page table. To achieve the above, internal changes in the ODP data structures were done and some flows were cleaned-up/adapted accordingly.
