mm: clean up the last pieces of page fault accountings
Here're the last pieces of page fault accounting that were still done outside handle_mm_fault() where we still have regs==NULL when calling handle_mm_fault(): arch/powerpc/mm/copro_fault.c: copro_handle_mm_fault arch/sparc/mm/fault_32.c: force_user_fault arch/um/kernel/trap.c: handle_page_fault mm/gup.c: faultin_page fixup_user_fault mm/hmm.c: hmm_vma_fault mm/ksm.c: break_ksm Some of them has the issue of duplicated accounting for page fault retries. Some of them didn't do the accounting at all. This patch cleans all these up by letting handle_mm_fault() to do per-task page fault accounting even if regs==NULL (though we'll still skip the perf event accountings). With that, we can safely remove all the outliers now. There's another functional change in that now we account the page faults to the caller of gup, rather than the task_struct that passed into the gup code. More information of this can be found at [1]. After this patch, below things should never be touched again outside handle_mm_fault(): - task_struct.[maj|min]_flt - PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS_[MAJ|MIN] [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wj_V2Tps2QrMn20_W0OJF9xqNh52XSGA42s-ZJ8Y+GyKw@mail.gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Peter Xu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Cc: Albert Ou <[email protected]> Cc: Alexander Gordeev <[email protected]> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <[email protected]> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[email protected]> Cc: Borislav Petkov <[email protected]> Cc: Brian Cain <[email protected]> Cc: Catalin Marinas <[email protected]> Cc: Christian Borntraeger <[email protected]> Cc: Chris Zankel <[email protected]> Cc: Dave Hansen <[email protected]> Cc: David S.
