[PATCH 02/13] aio: add aio_get_mm() helper

From: Benjamin LaHaise
Date: Mon Jan 11 2016 - 17:06:50 EST


For various async operations, it is necessary to have a way of finding
the address space to use for accessing user memory. Add the helper
struct mm_struct *aio_get_mm(struct kiocb *) to address this use-case.
