Subject[PATCH 08/10] mm: replace __access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
Date
This patch removes the write parameter from __access_remote_vm() and replaces it
with a gup_flags parameter as use of this function previously _implied_
FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag.

We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising behaviour
(and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
