      kmap_atomic: make kunmap_atomic() harder to misuse · 597781f3
      Cesar Eduardo Barros 提交于
      kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
      list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
      some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
      
      kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
      takes a pointer to within the page itself.  This seems to once in a while
      trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
      kunmap()).
      
      Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
      ("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong").  This is done by
      refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
      struct page.
      
      The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
      (which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
      with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
      
      The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.

      [2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
          break at runtime."
      [3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
          share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
          degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
          for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.

      [5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
          the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?
