[PATCH v1 7/9] mm: Introduce unmap_desc struct to reduce function arguments
Posted by Liam R. Howlett 3 weeks, 2 days ago
The unmap_region code uses a number of arguments that could use better
documentation.  With the addition of a descriptor for unmap (called
unmap_desc), the arguments can be more self-documenting and increase the
descriptions within the declaration.

No functional change intended

Nice :) comments really help this be self-documenting also.

Not to bike shed, but I we already have MMAP_STATE() and VMG_MMAP_STATE() for
instance, so perhaps UNMAP_STATE() for consistency?

Sorry, the naming still feels confusing... tree_max is described as /*
Maximum for the vma tree search */ and here we set it to /* Don't free
the pgtables higher than the failure */.

Look at MMAP_STATE(), VMG_MMAP_STATE() for precedent in vma.c
