4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@xxxxxxxxx> commit 7f23b3504a0df63b724180262c5f3f117f21bcae upstream. This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_vaddr_frames() and replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
