The patch titled Subject: mm/mmap: drop protection_map[] has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-mmap-drop-protection_map.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-mmap-drop-protection_map.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-mmap-drop-protection_map.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm/mmap: drop protection_map[] There are no other users for protection_map[]. Hence just drop this array construct and instead define __vm_get_page_prot() which will provide page protection map based on vm_flags combination switch.
