Re: fuse, get_user_pages, flush_anon_page, aliasing caches and all that again

Is the documentation wrong?

Yes.  As I've already explained there is no guarantee that
get_user_pages() is only called to obtain pages for the current
process, and flush_anon_pages() is called irrespective of which
user process is being 'got'.

ok, it's easy enough to fix, I'm just trying to point out that it's being implemented on parisc according to the documentation.
