[V4][PATCH 1/4]Remove internal use of 'write_access' in mm/memory.c

From: Ying Han
Date: Mon Apr 13 2009 - 15:46:19 EST


Remove internal use of 'write_access' in mm/memory.c

The fault handling routines really want more fine-grained flags than a
single "was it a write fault" boolean - the callers will want to set
flags like "you can return a retry error" etc.

And that's actually how the VM works internally, but right now the
top-level fault handling functions in mm/memory.c all pass just the
'write_access' boolean around.

This switches them over to pass around the FAULT_FLAG_xyzzy 'flags'
variable instead. The 'write_access' calling convention still exists
for the exported 'handle_mm_fault()' function, but that is next.
