    mm/fault: convert remaining simple cases to lock_mm_and_find_vma() · a050ba1e
    Linus Torvalds authored
    This does the simple pattern conversion of alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
    loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa to the lock_mm_and_find_vma()
    helper.  They all have the regular fault handling pattern without odd
    special cases.
    
    The remaining architectures all have something that keeps us from a
    straightforward conversion: ia64 and parisc have stacks that can grow
    both up as well as down (and ia64 has special address region checks).
    
    And m68k, microblaze, openrisc, sparc64, and um end up having extra
    rules about only expanding the stack down a limited amount below the
    user space stack pointer.  That is something that x86 used to do too
    (long long ago), and it probably could just be skipped, but it still
    makes the conversion less than trivial.
    
    Note that this conversion was done manually and with the exception of
    alpha without any build testing, because I have a fairly limited cross-
    building environment.  The cases are all simple, and I went through the
    changes several times, but...
