bpf: Remove redundant page mask of vmf->address
As the comment described in "struct vm_fault": ".address" : 'Faulting virtual address - masked' ".real_address" : 'Faulting virtual address - unmasked' The link [1] said: "Whatever the routes, all architectures end up to the invocation of handle_mm_fault() which, in turn, (likely) ends up calling __handle_mm_fault() to carry out the actual work of allocating the page tables." __handle_mm_fault() does address assignment: .address = address & PAGE_MASK, .real_address = address, This is debug dump by running `./test_progs -a "*arena*"`: [ 69.767494] arena fault: vmf->address = 10000001d000, vmf->real_address = 10000001d008 [ 69.767496] arena fault: vmf->address = 10000001c000, vmf->real_address = 10000001c008 [ 69.767499] arena fault: vmf->address = 10000001b000, vmf->real_address = 10000001b008 [ 69.767501] arena fault: vmf->address = 10000001a000, vmf->real_address = 10000001a008 [ 69.767504] arena fault: vmf->address = 100000019000, vmf->real_address = 100000019008 [ 69.769388] arena fault: vmf->address = 10000001e000, vmf->real_address = 10000001e1e8 So we can use the value of 'vmf->address' to do BPF arena kernel address space cast directly.
