Subject: [PATCH 02/10] mm: remove write/force parameters from __get_user_pages_unlocked()

From: [email-masked] (Lorenzo Stoakes)
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 01:20:12 +0100

This patch removes the write and force parameters from
__get_user_pages_unlocked() to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as
use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the
mm subsystem.
