sched/headers: Move task->mm handling methods to <linux/sched/mm.h>
Move the following task->mm helper APIs into a new header file, <linux/sched/mm.h>, to further reduce the size and complexity of <linux/sched.h>. Here are how the APIs are used in various kernel files: # mm_alloc(): arch/arm/mach-rpc/ecard.c fs/exec.c include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c # __mmdrop(): arch/arc/include/asm/mmu_context.h include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c # mmdrop(): arch/arm/mach-rpc/ecard.c arch/m68k/sun3/mmu_emu.c arch/x86/mm/tlb.c drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_process.c drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_userptr.c drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/file_ops.c drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_spapr_tce.c fs/exec.c fs/proc/base.c fs/proc/task_mmu.c fs/proc/task_nommu.c fs/userfaultfd.c include/linux/mmu_notifier.h include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c kernel/futex.c kernel/sched/core.c mm/khugepaged.c mm/ksm.c mm/mmu_context.c mm/mmu_notifier.c mm/oom_kill.c virt/kvm/kvm_main.c # mmdrop_async_fn(): include/linux/sched/mm.h # mmdrop_async(): include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c # mmget_not_zero(): fs/userfaultfd.c include/linux/sched/mm.h mm/oom_kill.c # mmput(): arch/arc/include/asm/mmu_context.h arch/arc/kernel/troubleshoot.c arch/frv/mm/mmu-context.c arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/context.c arch/sparc/include/asm/mmu_context_32.h drivers/android/binder.c drivers/gpu/drm/etnaviv/etnaviv_gem.c drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_userptr.c drivers/infiniband/core/umem.c drivers/infiniband/core/umem_odp.c drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/main.c drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_uiom.c drivers/iommu/amd_iommu_v2.c drivers/iommu/intel-svm.c drivers/lguest/lguest_user.c drivers/misc/cxl/fault.c drivers/misc/mic/scif/scif_rma.c drivers/oprofile/buffer_sync.c drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c drivers/vhost/vhost.c drivers/xen/gntdev.c fs/exec.c fs/proc/array.c fs/proc/base.c fs/proc/task_mmu.c fs/proc/task_nommu.c fs/userfaultfd.c include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/cpuset.c kernel/events/core.c kernel/events/uprobes.c kernel/exit.c kernel/fork.c kernel/ptrace.c kernel/sys.c kernel/trace/trace_output.c kernel/tsacct.c mm/memcontrol.c mm/memory.c mm/mempolicy.c mm/migrate.c mm/mmu_notifier.c mm/nommu.c mm/oom_kill.c mm/process_vm_access.c mm/rmap.c mm/swapfile.c mm/util.c virt/kvm/async_pf.c # mmput_async(): include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c mm/oom_kill.c # get_task_mm(): arch/arc/kernel/troubleshoot.c arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/context.c drivers/android/binder.c drivers/gpu/drm/etnaviv/etnaviv_gem.c drivers/infiniband/core/umem.c drivers/infiniband/core/umem_odp.c drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/main.c drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_uiom.c drivers/iommu/amd_iommu_v2.c drivers/iommu/intel-svm.c drivers/lguest/lguest_user.c drivers/misc/cxl/fault.c drivers/misc/mic/scif/scif_rma.c drivers/oprofile/buffer_sync.c drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c drivers/vhost/vhost.c drivers/xen/gntdev.c fs/proc/array.c fs/proc/base.c fs/proc/task_mmu.c include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/cpuset.c kernel/events/core.c kernel/exit.c kernel/fork.c kernel/ptrace.c kernel/sys.c kernel/trace/trace_output.c kernel/tsacct.c mm/memcontrol.c mm/memory.c mm/mempolicy.c mm/migrate.c mm/mmu_notifier.c mm/nommu.c mm/util.c # mm_access(): fs/proc/base.c include/linux/sched/mm.h kernel/fork.c mm/process_vm_access.c # mm_release(): arch/arc/include/asm/mmu_context.h fs/exec.c include/linux/sched/mm.h include/uapi/linux/sched.h kernel/exit.c kernel/fork.c Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
