A few reasons to drop kmap: - For native objects all we do is look at obj->vaddr anyway, so might as well not call functions for every page. - Reloc-processing on dma-buf is ... questionable. - Plus most dma-buf that bother kernel cpu mmaps give you at least vmap, much less kmaps. And all the ones relevant for arm-soc are again doing a obj->vaddr game anyway, there's no real kmap going on on arm it seems. Plus this seems to be the only real in-tree user of dma_buf_kmap, and I'd like to get rid of that.

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 Restructured Text 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.
