From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>
Subject: mm: use untagged_addr() for get_user_pages_fast addresses

Patch series "switch the remaining architectures to use generic GUP", v4.

A series to switch mips, sh and sparc64 to use the generic GUP code so
that we only have one codebase to touch for further improvements to this
code.


This patch (of 16):

This will allow sparc64, or any future architecture with memory tagging to
override its tags for get_user_pages and get_user_pages_fast.
