From 0b173bc4daa8f8ec03a85abf5e47b23502ff80af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Konstantin Khlebnikov Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2012 16:28:46 -0700 Subject: mm: kill vma flag VM_CAN_NONLINEAR Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special vma operation: ->remap_pages(). Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support, if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used. Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.
