    mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods of time · 53a7706d
    Michel Lespinasse 提交于
    __get_user_pages gets a new 'nonblocking' parameter to signal that the
    caller is prepared to re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the operation if
    needed.  This is used to split off long operations if they are going to
    block on a disk transfer, or when we detect contention on the mmap_sem.
