Revision 4a23717a236b2ab31efb1651f586126789fc997f authored by Davidlohr Bueso on 13 December 2014, 00:54:30 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 13 December 2014, 20:42:45 UTC
Both register and unregister call build_map_info() in order to create the
list of mappings before installing or removing breakpoints for every mm
which maps file backed memory.  As such, there is no reason to hold the
i_mmap_rwsem exclusively, so share it and allow concurrent readers to
build the mapping data.
