From b7f0554a56f21fb3e636a627450a9add030889be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Wed, 29 Nov 2017 16:10:39 -0800 Subject: mm: fail get_vaddr_frames() for filesystem-dax mappings Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow V4L2, Exynos, and other frame vector users to create long standing / irrevocable memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas.
