Subject: [PATCH 8/9] mm: make do_madvise() available internally
Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2019 12:21:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>

This is in preparation for enabling this functionality through io_uring.
Add a helper that is just exporting what sys_madvise() does, and have the
system call use it.

No functional changes in this patch.
