Reading through the tree, I see that some callers of get_user_pages() release the pages that they got via put_page(), and some callers use page_cache_release(). Of course <linux/pagemap.h> has
#define page_cache_release(page) put_page(page)
so this is really not much of a difference, but I'd like to know which is considered better style. Any opinions?
Thanks, Roland
