- * With get_user_pages_fast(), we walk down the pagetables without taking any
- * locks. For this we would like to load the pointers atomically, but sometimes
- * that is not possible (e.g. without expensive cmpxchg8b on x86_32 PAE). What
- * we do have is the guarantee that a PTE will only either go from not present
- * to present, or present to not present or both -- it will not switch to a
- * completely different present page without a TLB flush in between; something
- * that we are blocking by holding interrupts off.
