    [PATCH] hugetlbpages: factor out some code for hugetlbfs · d38c229c
    Andrew Morton authored
    In order for hugetlbfs to operate, prefaulting the vma at mmap()-time
    while simultaneously instantiating and performing lookups on its
    ratcache entries is needed as an isolated operation.  This is
    implemented as part of a different function within hugetlbpage.c that
    ties it to inode and key lookup and allocation.
    
    The following patch simply moves the code already present into its own
    function, calls it, and makes it available for hugetlbfs to use.
