| |
As the the uaddr doesn't change after attempts to handle the fault, there is no need to re-get the futex keys after get_user(). This patch makes successful calls to futex_handle_fault() and get_user() start the retry from the same point (right after the get_futex_key calls). Also simplify the logic and corrects missing put on the futex keys. Finally, update the comment to more accurate reflect the current code (we no hold the mm sem here).
