  20          * With get_user_pages_fast, we walk down the pagetables without taking

  22          * but that is not possible (without expensive cmpxchg8b) on PAE.  What
  23          * we do have is the guarantee that a pte will only either go from not
  24          * present to present, or present to not present or both -- it will not
  25          * switch to a completely different present page without a TLB flush in
  26          * between; something that we are blocking by holding interrupts off.
  27          *
  28          * Setting ptes from not present to present goes:
  29          * ptep->pte_high = h;
  30          * smp_wmb();
  31          * ptep->pte_low = l;
  32          *
  33          * And present to not present goes:
  34          * ptep->pte_low = 0;
  35          * smp_wmb();
  36          * ptep->pte_high = 0;
  37          *
  38          * We must ensure here that the load of pte_low sees l iff pte_high
  39          * sees h. We load pte_high *after* loading pte_low, which ensures we
  40          * don't see an older value of pte_high.  *Then* we recheck pte_low,
  41          * which ensures that we haven't picked up a changed pte high. We might
  42          * have got rubbish values from pte_low and pte_high, but we are
  43          * guaranteed that pte_low will not have the present bit set *unless*
  44          * it is 'l'. And get_user_pages_fast only operates on present ptes, so
  45          * we're safe.
  46          *
  47          * gup_get_pte should not be used or copied outside gup.c without being
  48          * very careful -- it does not atomically load the pte or anything that
  49          * is likely to be useful for you.
