From 9b4bdd2ffab9557ac43af7dff02e7dab1c8c58bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 14:09:51 -0800 Subject: mm: drop support of non-linear mapping from fault codepath We don't create non-linear mappings anymore. Let's drop code which handles them on page fault. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
