Powerpc is the only architecture having _inatomic variants of __get_user() and __put_user() accessors. They were introduced by commit e68c825bb016 ("[POWERPC] Add inatomic versions of __get_user and __put_user"). Those variants expand to the _nosleep macros instead of expanding to the _nocheck macros. The only difference between the _nocheck and the _nosleep macros is the call to might_fault(). Since commit 662bbcb2747c ("mm, sched: Allow uaccess in atomic with pagefault_disable()"), __get/put_user() can be used in atomic parts of the code, therefore __get/put_user_inatomic() have become useless. Remove __get_user_inatomic() and __put_user_inatomic().

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.
