The patch titled
Subject: goldish_pipe: convert to pin_user_pages() and put_user_page()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
goldish_pipe-convert-to-pin_user_pages-and-put_user_page.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: goldish_pipe: convert to pin_user_pages() and put_user_page()
1. Call the new global pin_user_pages_fast(), from
pin_goldfish_pages().
2. As required by pin_user_pages(), release these pages via
put_user_page(). In this case, do so via put_user_pages_dirty_lock().
That has the side effect of calling set_page_dirty_lock(), instead of
set_page_dirty(). This is probably more accurate.
As Christoph Hellwig put it, "set_page_dirty() is only safe if we are
dealing with a file backed page where we have reference on the inode it
hangs off." [1]
Another side effect is that the release code is simplified because the
page[] loop is now in gup.c instead of here, so just delete the local
release_user_pages() entirely, and call put_user_pages_dirty_lock()
directly, instead.
