Subject[PATCH v7 1/4] userfaultfd: Add UFFD WP Async support
Date
Add new WP Async mode (UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_ASYNC_WP) which resolves
the page faults on its own. It can be used to track that which pages have
been written to from the time the pages were write protected. It is very
efficient way to track the changes as uffd is by nature pte/pmd based.

UFFD WP (UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP) sends the page faults to the
userspace where the pages which have been written-to can be tracked. But
it is not efficient. This is why this async version is being added.
After setting the WP Async, the pages which have been written to can be
found in the pagemap file or information can be obtained from the
PAGEMAP_IOCTL (see next patches).
