Hi Linus,
It's still the same topic branch as last merge window, but the name isn't
fitting all that well anymore :-)
Anyway here's a small pull for you to ponder, now that the big ones are
all through. It's been in -next almost the entire cycle, I've only done
some non-code rebases due to the -rc1 fumble and to fix some commit
message typos.
Christoph Hellwig also looked at these and aside from wanting to outright
remove it all didn't have objections.
topic/iomem-mmap-vs-gup-2021-05-03:
unexport follow_pfn
Follow-up to my pull from last merge window: kvm and vfio lost their
very unsafe use of follow_pfn, this appropriately marks up the very
last user for some userptr-as-buffer use-cases in media. There was
some resistance to outright removing it, maybe we can do this in a few
releases.
Cheers, Daniel
