- * follow_pte - look up PTE at a user virtual address
- * @vma: the memory mapping
- * @address: user virtual address
- * @ptepp: location to store found PTE
- * @ptlp: location to store the lock for the PTE
- *
- * On a successful return, the pointer to the PTE is stored in @ptepp;
- * the corresponding lock is taken and its location is stored in @ptlp.
- *
- * The contents of the PTE are only stable until @ptlp is released using
- * pte_unmap_unlock(). This function will fail if the PTE is non-present.
- * Present PTEs may include PTEs that map refcounted pages, such as
- * anonymous folios in COW mappings.
- *
- * Callers must be careful when relying on PTE content after
- * pte_unmap_unlock(). Especially if the PTE maps a refcounted page,
- * callers must protect against invalidation with MMU notifiers; otherwise
- * access to the PFN at a later point in time can trigger use-after-free.
- *
- * Only IO mappings and raw PFN mappings are allowed.  The mmap semaphore
- * should be taken for read.
- *
- * This function must not be used to modify PTE content.
- *
- * Return: zero on success, -ve otherwise.
