From a0a8f5364a5ad248aec6cb705e0092ff563edc2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 19:45:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86: implement pte_special Implement the pte_special bit for x86. This is required to support lockless get_user_pages, because we need to know whether or not we can refcount a particular page given only its pte (and no vma).
