    Subject[PATCH v13 05/20] mm, arm64: untag user pointers in mm/gup.c
    From
    This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to
    pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other
    than 0x00) as syscall arguments.

    mm/gup.c provides a kernel interface that accepts user addresses and
    manipulates user pages directly (for example get_user_pages, that is used
    by the futex syscall). Since a user can provided tagged addresses, we need
    to handle this case.

    Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user addresses for vma lookups.
