Given that in kvm_create_vm() there is: kvm->mm = current->mm; And that on every kvm_*_ioctl we have: if (kvm->mm != current->mm) return -EIO; I see no reason to keep using current->mm instead of kvm->mm. By doing so, we would reduce the use of 'global' variables on code, relying more in the contents of kvm struct.

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.
