Commit050a9adc64("mm: consolidate the get_user_pages* implementations") moved get_user_pages_fast() from mm/util.c to mm/gup.c, but didn't update the documentation, leading to this build warning: ./mm/util.c:1: warning: 'get_user_pages_fast' not found Update the docs to match the new reality.

Memory Allocation Controls
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Functions which need to allocate memory often use GFP flags to express
|
|
how that memory should be allocated. The GFP acronym stands for "get
|
|
free pages", the underlying memory allocation function. Not every GFP
|
|
flag is allowed to every function which may allocate memory. Most
|
|
users will want to use a plain ``GFP_KERNEL``.
