    mm: add support for direct_IO to highmem pages · 5a178119
    Mel Gorman 提交于
    The patch "mm: add support for a filesystem to activate swap files and use
    direct_IO for writing swap pages" added support for using direct_IO to
    write swap pages but it is insufficient for highmem pages.
    
    To support highmem pages, this patch kmaps() the page before calling the
    direct_IO() handler.  As direct_IO deals with virtual addresses an
    additional helper is necessary for get_kernel_pages() to lookup the struct
    page for a kmap virtual address.
