From 0551fbd29e16fccd46e41b7d01bf0f8f39b14212 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 16:59:19 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Add mm->task_size and fix powerpc vdso This patch adds mm->task_size to keep track of the task size of a given mm and uses that to fix the powerpc vdso so that it uses the mm task size to decide what pages to fault in instead of the current thread flags (which broke when ptracing). (akpm: I expect that mm_struct.task_size will become the way in which we finally sort out the confusion between 32-bit processes and 32-bit mm's. It may need tweaks, but at this stage this patch is powerpc-only.)

But the put_task_struct couldn't be used modular previously as __put_task_struct wasn't exported. There are not callers of it in modular code, and it shouldn't be exported because we don't want drivers to hold references to task_structs. This patch removes the export and folds __put_task_struct into __put_task_struct_cb as there's no other caller.
