This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled RDMA/siw: remove FOLL_FORCE usage to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rdma-siw-remove-foll_force-usage.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit dba305c6ba7aebc95f1023375438ad7d70353453 Author: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 16 11:26:51 2022 +0100 RDMA/siw: remove FOLL_FORCE usage [ Upstream commit 129e636fe9837fcfea68bfd368a07548d9880726 ] GUP now supports reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings, such that we break COW early. MAP_SHARED VMAs only use the shared zeropage so far in one corner case (DAXFS file with holes), which can be ignored because GUP does not support long-term pinning in fsdax (see check_vma_flags()). Consequently, FOLL_FORCE | FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_LONGTERM is no longer required for reliable R/O long-term pinning: FOLL_LONGTERM is sufficient. So stop using FOLL_FORCE, which is really only for ptrace access.
