Linux kernel source tree

kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Replace kmap_atomic() and kunmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() and kunmap_local() respectively. Note that kmap_atomic() disables preemption and page-fault processing, but kmap_local_page() doesn't. When converting uses of kmap_atomic(), one has to check if the code being executed between the map/unmap implicitly depends on page-faults and/or preemption being disabled. If yes, then code to disable page-faults and/or preemption should also be added for functional correctness. That however doesn't appear to be the case here, so just kmap_local_page() is used. Also note that the page being mapped is not allocated by the driver, and so the driver doesn't know if the page is in normal memory. This is the reason kmap_local_page() is used as opposed to page_address(). I don't have hardware, so this change has only been compile tested. Cc: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Cc: Fabio M.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
