Since 0cbe3e26abe0 ("mm: update ptep_modify_prot_start/commit to take vm_area_struct as arg") the only place that uses the local 'mm' variable in change_pte_range() is the call to set_pte_at(). Many architectures define set_pte_at() as macro that does not use the 'mm' parameter, which generates the following compilation warning: CC mm/mprotect.o mm/mprotect.c: In function 'change_pte_range': mm/mprotect.c:42:20: warning: unused variable 'mm' [-Wunused-variable] struct mm_struct *mm = vma->vm_mm; ^~ Fix it by passing vma->mm to set_pte_at() and dropping the local 'mm' variable in change_pte_range().

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.
