Subject: mm: cleanup flags usage in faultin_page
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2024 17:26:06 -0400

Patch series "mm: some small page fault cleanups".

I was recently wreaking havoc in the page fault code and I noticed some
things that could be cleaned up.  We no longer modify the gup flags in
faultin_page, so we can clean up how we pass the flags in and remove the
extra variable in __get_user_pages.


This patch (of 2):

We're passing a pointer to the foll_flags for faultin_page, however we
never modify the flags in this call.  Change this to just take the flags
value instead.
