From caf8cab7985794d7cc8b85143b11e258ea5c8a44 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Xu Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2024 11:23:28 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] mm/gup: cache *pudp in follow_pud_mask() Introduce "pud_t pud" in the function, so the code won't dereference *pudp multiple time. Not only because that looks less straightforward, but also because if the dereference really happened, it's not clear whether there can be race to see different *pudp values if it's being modified at the same time.
