From 110d74a921f4d272b47ef6104fcf937df808f4c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michel Lespinasse Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2011 15:46:11 -0800 Subject: mm: add FOLL_MLOCK follow_page flag. Move the code to mlock pages from __mlock_vma_pages_range() to follow_page(). This allows __mlock_vma_pages_range() to not have to break down work into 16-page batches. An additional motivation for doing this within the present patch series is that it'll make it easier for a later chagne to drop mmap_sem when blocking on disk (we'd like to be able to resume at the page that was read from disk instead of at the start of a 16-page batch).
