commit 314c459a6fe0957b5885fbc65c53d51444092880 upstream.
Since commit 974b9b2c68f3 ("mm: consolidate pte_index() and
pte_offset_*() definitions") pte_index is a static inline and there is
no define for it that can be recognized by the preprocessor. As a
result, vm_insert_pages() uses slower loop over vm_insert_page() instead
of insert_pages() that amortizes the cost of spinlock operations when
inserting multiple pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
