Patch series "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal". Currently the only user of mmap_region() outside of the memory management code is the MIPS VDSO implementation. This uses mmap_region() to map a 'delay slot emulation page' at the top of the stack which is read-only and executable. This mapping requires that an already-acquired mmap write lock is utilised and that uffd and populate logic is ignored. This rules out vm_mmap(), however do_mmap() fits the bill. Adapt this code to use do_mmap() and then once done, make mmap_region() internal and userland testable, and avoid any other uses of mmap_region(), which is absolutely and strictly an internal mm function which bypasses a great number of checks and logic. This patch (of 2): mmap_region() is an internal memory management implementation detail that is not intended to be used outside of the memory management subsystem. Map the delay slot emulation page using do_mmap() which makes use of the already-held mmap write lock and bypasses unneeded populate and userfaultfd logic. This should have the precise same behaviour as the existing logic.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
