[PATCH v6 3/3] userfaultfd: use per-vma locks in userfaultfd operations
From: Lokesh Gidra
Date: Tue Feb 13 2024 - 17:02:11 EST
All userfaultfd operations, except write-protect, opportunistically use
per-vma locks to lock vmas. On failure, attempt again inside mmap_lock
critical section.
Write-protect operation requires mmap_lock as it iterates over multiple
vmas.
