      get_user_pages: don't try to follow PFNMAP pages · 1ff80389
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Nick Piggin points out that a few drivers play games with VM_IO (why?
      who knows..) and thus a pfn-remapped area may not have that bit set even
      if remap_pfn_range() set it originally.
      
      So make it explicit in get_user_pages() that we don't follow VM_PFNMAP
      pages, since pretty much by definition they do not have a "struct page"
      associated with them.
