There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so just remove it along with all associated code that operates on thread_info->addr_limit. There are still further optimizations that can be done: - In get_user(), the address check could be moved entirely into the out of line code, rather than passing a constant as an argument, - I assume the DACR handling can be simplified as we now only change it during user access when CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN is set, but not during set_fs().

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.
