[PATCH v5 2/3] mm: New arch_remap hook

From: Laurent Dufour
Date: Wed Apr 15 2015 - 10:17:34 EST


Some architecture would like to be triggered when a memory area is moved
through the mremap system call.

This patch is introducing a new arch_remap mm hook which is placed in the
path of mremap, and is called before the old area is unmapped (and the
arch_unmap hook is called).
