Axel Rasmussen aa9bcf0bea BACKPORT: FROMGIT: userfaultfd/shmem: modify shmem_mfill_atomic_pte to use install_pte()
In a previous commit, we added the mfill_atomic_install_pte() helper.
This helper does the job of setting up PTEs for an existing page, to map
it into a given VMA.  It deals with both the anon and shmem cases, as well
as the shared and private cases.

In other words, shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() duplicates a case it already
handles.  So, expose it, and let shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() use it directly,
to reduce code duplication.

This requires that we refactor shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() a bit:

Instead of doing accounting (shmem_recalc_inode() et al) part-way through
the PTE setup, do it afterward.  This frees up mfill_atomic_install_pte()
from having to care about this accounting, and means we don't need to e.g.
shmem_uncharge() in the error path.

A side effect is this switches shmem_mfill_atomic_pte() to use
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() instead of just lru_cache_add().
This wrapper does some extra accounting in an exceptional case, if
appropriate, so it's actually the more correct thing to use.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
