[PATCH 0/4] hmm: fixes and documentations v2

[jglisse]

From: JÃrÃme Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx>

Removed pointless VM_BUG_ON() cced stable when appropriate and splitted
the last patch into _many_ smaller patches to make it easier to review.
The end result is same modulo comments i received so far and the extra
documentation i added while splitting thing up. Below is previous cover
letter (everything in it is still true):

----------------------------------------------------------------------

All patches only impact HMM user, there is no implication outside HMM.

First patch improve documentation to better reflect what HMM is. Second
patch fix #if/#else placement in hmm.h. The third patch add a call on
mm release which helps device driver who use HMM to clean up early when
a process quit. Finaly last patch modify the CPU snapshot and page fault
helper to simplify device driver. The nouveau patchset i posted last
week already depends on all of those patches.

You can find them in a hmm-for-4.17 branch:
